Description
Fuchsia 'Loeky' is free-flowering, with medium-sized single flowers. The tube and sepals are a lovely rosy red, while the corolla is a subtle lavender, gradually ageing to rose pink. This fuchsia has an upright, bushy, hanging habit and is good variety for standards.
Loeky won an Award of Merit, VKC, Holland.
Bred by Herman J de Graaff, the Netherlands in 1979 and it was registered in 1985. It's parents are Joy Patmore and Impudence.
- 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.
- In severe winters additional protection may be required for plants in the ground or left outside in containers. We suggest covering the plant with straw then inverting a large pot or bucket over it to provide further protection.
