Fuchsias

Fuchsias

A genus of hardy to frost hardy tender deciduous or evergreen shrubs, trees and some perennials from which have been developed a vast number of hybrids and cultivars valued for their distinctive and varied flowers which may be single, semi-double or double.
Much used for summer bedding, containers and hanging baskets.

Fuchsias

There are thousands of different types of fuchsia, having been bred from a handful of wild species found in Mexico, the West Indies and New Zealand
Colours vary from pinks, purples, whites and reds to sober and flashy multicoloured mixtures (true yellow is still elusive). Several (for example Fuchsia magellanica) can even be grown as hedges.
They basically divide into the hardy ones that can be left outside all year, the bushy or upright tender kind for pots, and the dangling, trailing ones for hanging baskets. All flowers have three parts: the upper tube; the sepals beneath that often point out like wings (they look like petals but aren't); and the corolla (the real petals), the skirt-like growth underneath the sepals. Each can be differently coloured in some varieties.
