A popular Triphylla cultivar, award-winner Fuchsia 'Billy Green' is a vigorous and upright deciduous shrub with a profusion of long, coral pink flowers with slender, tapering tubes, short sepals and darker petals. Blooming from early summer until frost, the flowers contrast beautifully with the olive-green foliage. Strong growing, this flowering shrub makes an excellent border plant in summer and is perfect as a specimen plant in containers. Attractive to bees and hummingbirds.
