Summer Bedding, Hanging baskets, Containers
Incredibly pretty, Fuchsia ‘Maxima’ is an upright, trailing, deciduous shrub with a profusion of very large, semi-double flowers adorned with burgundy-red tubes and sepals and dark purple corollas. Blooming from early summer until frost, they stand out against the foliage of dark green leaves. The flowers give way to fruits reminiscent of small black olives. Attractive to bees and hummingbirds, this flowering shrub makes an excellent summer bedding plant and is perfect for hanging baskets or containers.
