Fuchsia - ShadowDancer® Betty

These plants have dark green leaves often with red stems. In many parts of the country (and especially if planted in a hanging pot) the fuchsia will require daily watering. The flowers, which are produced during the summer and early fall, are droopy and come in many colors. Keep the soil moist to the touch from spring through autumn. The red sepals with white corolla flowers perch well above the bushy small leaved foliage. Fuschia is one of the Hummingbirds favorite flowers. The Fuchsia ShadowDancer® Betty, 'Fuchsia hybrid', is a very early blooming Fuschia with exceptional uniformity and compact growth. Fuchsias should be planted in warm, sheltered spots in well-drained soil. They are great plants for greenhouses, window boxes, baskets, homes, and flower beds. Fuchsias do not like to dry out. For zones 9-11, this plant can also be a perennial. This Proven Selections plant blooms all summer long. ... details
