I was gifted this lovely bouquet but have cats, so I’m very cautious about the plants I have out! I think based on my research it’s the Alstroemeria / Peruvian lily, but before I have them out I just wanted to verify!
Yes, it’s a peruvian lily. These are not deadly to cats like easter lilies and other true lilies. It could make your cats sick if they chewed on them, but not rush-to-the-vet sick. If you can put them up high someplace where the kitties can’t reach them, they’re ok to keep in the house. (I.e., not like lilies where even the pollen is dangerous.)
