Fuchsia magellanica

Very pretty...
How tall is this one ?

thanks Tt.
It now stands at just over six feet tall, by about three feet, but I took the top out of it in February and pruned the sides. It hides the compost heap!

I don't know much about this type of fuchsia...
I guess it is hardy, but loses its leaves in winter ?
sorry.. so many questions, but lovely plant... :o)

Yes Tt, it is just about the hardiest fuchsia and grows wild in many parts of Cornwall. I've also seen it growing in the wild in Scotland! It is deciduous, as is the golden leaved form. Easily grown from cuttings, it also makes an excellent flowering hedge, if you don't mind bare twigs in winter.

Thanks for the info :o)

A stunning fuchsia Bbb......and what a great way to hide the compost heap !

I have one similar to this, very prolific flowering, gorgeous BBB
