One of the hardiest of all the Fuchsias. This graceful gold leaved, shrub has small yet elegant red and purple flowers borne en masse throughout the late summer and autumn months. A lovely plant, good in sun or semi shade. A spectacular sight especially in the autumn when it really comes into its own. Height 2m (6')
