Hardy Fuchsia 'Mrs Popple'
One of the first Fuchsias to bloom and one of the last to stop, award-winner Fuchsia ‘Mrs Popple’ (Hardy Fuchsia) is a vigorous, upright, deciduous shrub with small, dark green, serrated foliage and showy flowers. Blooming from early summer until frost, the medium-sized, single flowers feature scarlet sepals surrounding a violet-purple corolla adorned with cerise veining. Attractive to bees and hummingbirds, they hang with grace from the arching stems like porcelain drop earrings. One of the most popular Fuchsias, this flowering shrub makes a very attractive specimen plant and is also perfect for growing as a hedge.
