Fuchsia microphylla 'David' - Hardy Fuchsia

This Hardy Fuchsia is guaranteed to brighten up your garden with an abundance of dainty tubular flowers in shades of rosy red.

Fuchsia microphylla 'David' is one of the most rewarding hardy fuchsias to grow - free-flowering, with an upright, bushy habit, when it is in full flower the whole bush flushes with magenta making a truly spectacular show in your garden.

When grown in pots, a pair make a striking statement either side of doorways and entrances, bringing classic English Cottage Garden charm or contemporary flair depending on your garden - they combined well with virtually all other plants.

Hardy down to -5°C 'David' can be grown in the garden or in a patio planter during the summer. Normally grown as a small shrub and reaching a height of around 90cm in a year, if grown with protection it can be trained similar to a climber such as pyrocantha and excels when grown against a south facing wall. In mild areas of the country it exisits as 6-8ft tall hedges, especially in in South West Coastal districts that avoid the freezing winters of the north.

Supplied in approx. 2 litre containers.
