Fuchsia splendens 4" pot


Splendid Fuchsia. An unusual upright fuschia with lipstick-red flowers tipped in bright green.  The plant grows to about 6 feet tall and 3 feet wide and blooms heavily from spring to fall. This easy shrublet is pest-resistant and appears to even be avoided by both deer and rabbits!  The delicious, edible berries are said to taste tart with a peppery aftertaste.

(Onagraceae) Syn: Fuchsia cordifolia.  Native southern Mexico.

 

Light: Part shade or shade are best.  It will tolerate full sun, but won't look as lush.
