Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This lovely MITE-RESISTANT Fuchsia was generously shared with us by breeder Mary Cooke. A fast favorite at our retail nursery, it’s been flying out the door since it burst into glorious bloom on the tables. Extremely floriferous, it is simply covered with loads of 1.5” pink flowers that seem to glow against the rich green foliage. Gracefully arching branches make this Fuchsia ideal for training as a small “tree”, potting up as an exquisite container specimen, or simply leaving to its own device to form a lovely shrub. Expect a height of 4’ & width of 3’ at maturity.
