Alstroemeria flowering shoot
Alstroemeria L.
The reproductive shoot of Alstroemeria, bearing leaves and an inflorescence, characterized by length and thickness as key indicators of marketability and varietal identity.
In the reference 34 varieties crop Alstroemeria, where this is mentioned in the description.
In Alstroemeria, the flowering shoot is the primary reproductive organ, the length of which is measured from the base at the rhizome to the base of the terminal inflorescence. For pot and border varieties, this parameter typically ranges from 30–60 cm, whereas commercial cut-flower varieties reach 70–150 cm.
Product quality is determined by the strength and thickness of the stem, where the minimum requirements for export-grade cut flowers are 7 mm at a length of 85 cm or more. Imbalanced nutrition or insufficient light promote the formation of vegetative shoots to the detriment of reproductive ones, which negatively affects flowering.
