Fuchsia Charming is a beautiful medium semi-double flower. The tube and sepals are carmine/purple while the corolla is a gorogeous rosy purple. Upright and vigorous in habit, bushy in growth, it reaches a height of 24-30 (60-75 cm).
Also, Do You Know Do fuchsias come back every year?
Most fuchsias are tender perennials, which means that they’re perennials in warm climates, and so come back year after year if you live in a warmer location.
Generally Where do fuchsias grow best? Fuchsias are wonderfully versatile and will happily grow in sun or partial shade in any fertile, moist, well-drained soil. However, they do appreciate some shade during the hottest part of the day and a bit of shelter from cold winds.

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)
Do fuchsias like sun or shade?
Although fuchsias are considered shade plants, they need lots of light to grow and bloom. Choose a location outdoors where the plants receive direct morning sun or filtered sun all day. The warmer the climate, the more shade will be necessary. Fuchsias are at their best where the summer days stay below 85 degrees F.
Which is the most hardy fuchsia?
Hardy and reliable, Fuchsia ‘Beacon’ (Hardy Fuchsia) is a stiff, upright, deciduous shrub with small, dark green, serrated foliage and dainty flowers. Blooming from early summer until frost, the medium sized, single flowers feature deep pink sepals surrounding a mauve-pink flared corolla.
What do you do with fuchsias in the winter?
Choose a cool, frost-free place with a minimum temperature of 40-45°F (5-7°C). Keep the fuchsia plants in dark or low-light conditions for the winter. A garage, shed, basement or under a greenhouse bench all work well.
Do you cut back fuchsias in winter?
Pruning isn’t usually necessary, although a light trim in late autumn may be helpful if you live in a windy area. Otherwise, prune lightly in spring, if needed, to reduce height or to remove thin or weak growth. Avoid pruning hardy fuchsia in winter unless you live in a warm, non-freezing climate.
How long does a fuchsia live?
With the proper care and attention a fuchsia can live for many years. I know of some growers who have plants 25 years or more old and, because they have ‘grown up’ with their children, are now part of the family.
How do you keep a fuschia blooming?
Your fuchsia plant should be pinched continually through the summer to keep it producing flowers. Pinching your fuchsia is as easy as literally pinching or cutting the end one-quarter to one-half of each branch. If your fuchsia stopped blooming, fuchsias normally begin to flower within about six weeks of this pinching.
Can I plant fuchsia in the ground?
You can plant fuchsias in the ground or in a pot. These plants need to be moved indoors in the winter and hottest summer months in most regions. Unless you live in a mild climate with few temperature fluctuations, it will be easier to care for your fuchsias if they are in pots and containers.
Are fuchsia plants perennial?
Both bush and hanging fuchsias are regarded as being half-hardy perennials. That means they won’t survive temperatures below 4-5C (40-41F) and need overwintering in frost-free conditions if you want to keep them for subsequent years.

Will my fuchsia flower again?
Within about a month or so, it should start producing new branches, which will put out a new round of flowers. For best results and continual flowering from spring through fall, you should keep cutting or pinching them back as each branch stops blooming.
