Alphabetical Plant Listing

Fuchsia 'Ben Jammin'


Very free flowering, Fuchsia 'Ben Jammin' is a compact, deciduous shrub with attractive, medium-sized, single flowers. Each exquisite blossom features pink-flushed purple sepals, gracefully recurved when mature, and a rich purple corolla. Blooming profusely from early summer until frost, the blooms stand out against the foliage of mid-green leaves. Attractive to bees and hummingbirds, this flowering shrub makes a very attractive specimen plant in patio containers or as a standard.

  • Grows up to 2 ft. tall and wide (60 cm).
  • A full sun to part shade lover, this plant is best grown in moist, fertile, well-drained soils. Provide a deep winter mulch and shelter from cold drying winds.
  • Perfect for containers or rock gardens.
  • In early to mid-spring cut back the previous year's flowering stems to within one or two buds of the older woody framework. Also remove any thin, weak or dead growth. This stimulates development of strong new growth on which flowers will be produced in late summer.
  • Propagate by softwood or semi-hardwood cuttings
  • Watch for rust, capsid bug and caterpillars.
