Fuchsia ‘R.A.F.’ or Fuchsia ‘Royal Air Force’ has fully double, frilly pink petals with deeper pink to red, short sepals. A good choice for pots and hanging baskets with oodles of blooms. An upright variety.

Green thumb or brown, Fuchsias will flower for you! Plant them in a filtered light position to enjoy months of blooms. They are handy plants to have to light up a shaded garden spot.

The flowers open freely for a long period over the lush green leaves. Fuchsia blooms are like pretty dancers, in fancy skirts and sway gracefully in the breeze.

Fuchsias grow best in semi shade to filtered light conditions where they thrive in both pots and hanging baskets.

Plant Fuchsias good quality potting mix and be sure to shelter the plants from drying winds and frost. Add a liquid fertiliser monthly to keep them blooming. Make sure you keep them moist while actively growing.

With a little love Fuchsias will flower from spring to autumn. You can dead head them throughout the season to keep the blooms coming.

Our Tip: Fuchsias flower on new growth, so remove spent flowers and the first couple of leaves and add some liquid fertiliser during the growing season to achieve the best results.
