Hardy Fuchsia 'Hawkshead'
Superb and vigorous, award-winning Fuchsia ‘Hawkshead’ (Hardy Fuchsia) is a bushy, upright, deciduous shrub which produces masses of elegant, slim, white flowers, with a hint of pink and green tips, from early summer to fall. Sparkling against the foliage of small, dark green leaves, the flowers remain pure white even in the full sun. Attractive to bees and hummingbirds, this flowering shrub looks terrific at the back of the border and is perfect for growing as an informal hedge. Evergreen in frost-free areas, this hardy Fuchsia is an excellent landscape choice.
