I have posted a photo of another medium-sized Alstroemeria species, A. 
umbellata:

See the text page on Alstroemeria for a discussion of this species's 
habitat in the wild.

Thanks to Mark Mazer for posting A. hookeri and saving me the trouble! Mine 
look much the same. However, I have one plant that has produced flowers 
with extra tepals, which I have not previously seen in Alstroemerias.
