Last of the alstroemerias before the autumn storms

I spent most of the afternoon emptying terracotta pots in the garden and composting the last of the summer plants.  I always find this job a little sad because it means waiting until spring for it to start up again.  I decided to leave these alstroemerias in the bed covered in mulch, earlier in September, and their ability to survive so far has surprised me.  Sadly, I think the flowers will have disappeared by Saturday, but if they haven't I can do another blip.  I do so love them...
