At the nursery we stock a huge quantity of hardy fuchsias, comprising over 60 different varieties.

We think you will find them very competitively priced at a D code in Herbaceous.

Most are grown outside and all are well spaced. We offer top quality fuchsias, graded throughout the process - plants that do not 'flop'!

Our fuchsias are batch potted into 2.5 litre pots for long shelf life and trimmed for a longer season. For 2008 we shall also have some available in larger pots and terracotta planters.

All compost contains 12-14 month osmocote slow release fertiliser and has vine weevil control incorporated.
All pictures and labels are stapled on to eliminate the problem of untidy/lost labels.

Good for patio pots ...

Following three-year trials at RHS Wisley, the following fuchsias were given the RHS Award of Garden Merit (AGM) in 2006. These varieties were judged to be excellent for garden use, reasonably easy to grow and resistant to pests and diseases while remaining stable in form and colour.

David > Cerise/rich-purple flowers freely produced on a dwarf bush
Howlett’s Hardy > Fluted single flowers. Scarlet sepals and violet corolla
Magellanica Aurea > Hardy throughout the country.
Saturnus > Small upright bush with crimson/purple flowers
