Alstroemeria `Redcoat`

Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Alstroemeria named `Redcoat` is characterized by large rose-red blossoms which have numerous longitudinal maroon/brown streaks on its inner circle of tepals; the top two tepals of this inner group of three also have white and yellow on their lower portions. The individual florets are produced in large numbers on short peduncles. The plant is also distinguished by its short (approximately 55 cm. when grown in full sun), but strong, stems and its upright and vigorous growth habit. There is a continuous production of flowers on its umbel arrangement of branches during each of its blooming seasons.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinctive Alstroemeria plant substantially as shown and described, distinguished by its unique flower color, short growth habit, strong and numerous flowering stems, and numerous florets per inflorescence.
