	L.

The Inca lilies ( Alstroemeria ) are a genus in the family of the Inca lily plants ( Alstroemeriaceae) within the order of the lily-like (Liliales), so they belong to the monocot plants (Liliopsida). The genus was named by Carl von Linné in honor of the Swedish merchant and botanist Claes Alströmer (1736–1794). There are about 126 species. From a few species, very many varieties were bred, especially from Alstroemeria aurea (Syn .: Alstroemeria aurantiaca ). The hybrids are popular cut flowers .

description

Vegetative characteristics

Alstroemeria species grow as seasonal green, perennial herbaceous plants . They form rhizomes or tubers as permanent organs. The resupinate leaves, which are alternate on the stem, are simple and have entire margins.

Generative characteristics

The flowers are solitary or in axillary or terminal, racemose or dold-like inflorescences (inflorescences) with foliage -like bracts. The hermaphroditic, mostly zygomorphic flowers are threefold. There are two circles, each with three free, spatula-shaped bracts , of which only the three of the outer circle are designed the same. The upper bracts of the inner circle are striped in the natural forms and also in many varieties. Nectar is secreted at the lower end of the tepals . There are two circles with three free, thin stamens each. The stamens arising on a ring-shaped nectarium are bent upwards. Three carpels form a three-chambered ovary below . In each ovary chamber the many ovules stand in two rows. The three-pronged style ends in three briefly curved back scars.

Flower formula : ${\ displaystyle \ downarrow P_ {3 + 3} \; A_ {3 + 3} \; G _ {\ overline {(3)}}}$

They form loculicidal capsule fruits that contain many seeds.

The chromosome base number is n = 8.

distribution

The home is the temperate zones up to the tropics , in South America and Central America , as well as Australia and New Zealand. The Inca lilies thus belong to the southern hemisphere flora kingdom . Their distribution pattern is thus similar to that of at least 28 other flowering plant families.

Systematics

In 1762 the generic name Alstroemeria was set up by Carl von Linné in Planta Alströmeria and he named it in honor of his student Claus Alstroemer (1736-1794). The type species is Alstroemeria salsilla L. It is the type genus of the Alstroemeriaceae family. Synonyms for Alstroemeria L. are: Schickendantzia Pax , Taltalia Ehr. Bayer .
