Fuchsia 'Fuchsita Red & Blue' – Upright Bush Fuchsia (2L Pot)

Fuchsia 'Fuchsita Red and Blue' is an upright bush fuchsia, hung with pendant bell shaped flowers from late spring right through autumn.

The blooms have contrasting sepals and petals and dangle from slender stems above neat green leaves, so the whole plant moves in a breeze. It forms a tidy bushy clump around 30 to 45cm tall and wide, which suits a patio pot, a window box, a hanging display or the front of a border. Bees and butterflies work the flowers.

Most of the fuchsias we sell are the tender bedding and basket kind that frost kills, grown as summer colour, so plant it out only once the frosts have passed. It does best in light shade or morning sun in soil that stays moist, as flowers drop in hot, dry spells. Supplied as a well established 2L pot grown plant raised in peat free compost at our Yorkshire nursery.
