Description

Hardy Fuchsia (Fuchsia magellanica)
A tough beauty, Hardy Fuchsia is ideal for filling those challenging garden spots where other plants might struggle. Known for its resilience, this fuchsia brings eye-catching, drooping blooms that attract sugar birds, all while thriving in spots that get less attention.

Growing Conditions

Sunlight: Does well in partial shade to full sun, tolerating varied light conditions, including the dappled shade often found in hard-to-plant areas.

Soil: Prefers well-drained, humus-rich soil, but is adaptable to a range of soil types, even in less-than-ideal conditions.

Watering: Low-maintenance in terms of watering needs. Keep soil evenly moist, though it can handle short dry spells once established.

Temperature: Cold-hardy to around -10°C (14°F), making it a reliable choice for colder or exposed spots in the garden.

Fertilizer: Feed monthly during the growing season for vibrant blooms, though it’s low-maintenance and adaptable without frequent feeding.

Pruning: Lightly trim in early spring to maintain shape and encourage fresh growth.

Hardy Fuchsia is the go-to solution for difficult garden spots, offering reliable color, easy care, and a flair that brightens up hard-to-grow areas with minimal fuss.
