Description
Fuchsia Empress of Prussia's large single flowers are simply regal. The tube and sepals are glowing scarlet, while the corolla is a reddish magenta. Free flowering, with an upright, vigorous, self-branching habit, this fuchsia reaches a height of 36" (90 cm).
Bred by Hoppe, Germany in 1968, it is thought it may have been names after the Princess Victoria who married Friedrich III of Germany.
- Plant out from late May all through the summer.
- Hardy once established.
- Suitable for potting on or, dependent on time of year, planting straight into the garden.
- Late autumn garden planting should be avoided as the plants will not have time to establish before the winter.
- If grown in containers and left outside all winter they may not prove fully hardy as container growing does not afford the same level of root protection as growing in the ground.
