Description
Fuchsia 'Whiteknights Amethyst' is a magnificent free-flowering specimen. Small single flowers have a crimson tube and sepals while the corolla is purple violet with blue pollen. This fuchsia has a strong, upright, hanging habit, and reaches a height of 48 - 60" (120 - 150 cm).
Bred by John O Wright, UK in 1980. Parents are magellanica and excorticata.
- 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.
