Fuchsia ‘Shrimp Cocktail’ boasts a resilient and hardy character, that will tolerate tough weather to bring borders all sorts of colour through summer months. The marbled hot pink petals are candy blushed, for a distinct display of colour against dark foliage backdrop. Fantastic addition to borders and patio pots, returning year after year. Height and spread: 90cm (36″).
Growing Information
Pot up Fuchsia ‘Shrimp Cocktail’ using well drained compost such as John Innes No.3, and grow on in warm, frost-free conditions. Pinch out the growing tips while fuchsia plants are still small to promote bushier growth and more flowers. When plants are well grown and all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over a 7 to 10 day period, before planting them in their final positions in patio containers and sunny or semi shaded borders.
