Fuchsia ‘Lady Thumb’ (3-Litre Pot)

A real treat in the summer garden, Fuchsia ‘Lady Thumb’ has lashings of pink tube-like flowers with an outer ring of dark-pink petals creating a charming tutu display of blooms. With densely packed dark green foliage and a graceful arching habit, it looks sensational throughout the season.

Given the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit, not only is this shrub beautiful to admire, but it is a joy to grow with excellent reliability and consistently healthy growth.

With a neat and compact shape, it is a wonderful addition to pots and container displays, as well as hanging baskets and troughs. It will effortlessly soften areas of hard landscaping adding joyful colour and texture. With a trailing habit, it also looks beautiful as a garden edging or along a meandering gravel path.

To get the best display from your Fuchsia ‘Lady Thumb’, plant it in a sheltered but sunny or partially shaded spot. It grows best in free draining soil that is kept moist but not waterlogged. Remember to regularly deadhead spent flowers to encourage new buds to form.
