Add a touch of Brazilian sunshine to your indoor and outdoor spaces with this AGM holding, tropical yellow and red fuchsia. Jacobinia pauciflora bears long, tubular, brightly coloured blooms from October through to March each year. Flowers have a wonderfully sunny appeal and will bring the sunshine indoors over late autumn, winter and early spring. Perfect for planting in a container to liven up a conservatory all year-round or locating in a prime spot on a light, bright, windowsill. Furthermore, as a tender shrub which likes a climate above 10°C, your Jacobinia pauciflora can even enjoy a spell outdoors during the summer months to soak up some warmer temperatures and help build its resilience. Prefers well-drained soil of any kind. Plant in partial shade with a south or east facing aspect. Water little and often whilst establishing your plant, feed regularly and deadhead blooms as required. A sub-tropical, evergreen shrub with a height and spread of 60cm.
