Fuchsia microphylla
Fuchsia microphylla is one of the most rewarding hardy fuchsias to grow, when it is in full flower although the blooms are small the whole bush is covered in them creating almost a magenta cloud! Although I am assured it can get taller here, it rarely gets taller than 1mtr in warmer areas it would grow from the hard wood frame but here we cut it back to 20cms in the spring and off it goes shooting up to 1mtr. Still flowering here well into November if we haven't had a frost!
Plants are supplied in a 7cm pot.
Fuchsia magellanica “Lady Bacon”
Fuchsia "Lady Bacon" is a strong growing, hardy fuchsia, it really earns it's keep flowering all summer. After a cold winter it may need pruning so that it grows from the base but most years it can be left to grow from the hard wood frame. It's delicate pink, mauve and white flowers smother the plants.
Plants are supplied in a 9cm pot.
Sambucus nigra ‘Black beauty’
Best sited in full sun to get the best dark foliage from this reliable sturdy shrub, the dark burgundy almost black leaves make an excellent background for the pink and white flowers that open from dark red buds in May. Dark purple berries follow that are edible ( we use our to make wine!) but if you're not ready to harvest them for your own use the birds will gladly help you out as they love them. Although it will grow to 3mts in height it can be kept to about 1.2mts if you prune it back to about 60cms each winter , keeping it's shape more compact.
Plants are supplied in a 2ltr pot and may be pruned back for dispatch.
Fuchsia ‘Mrs Popple’
