Fuchsia 'Son of Thumb'

A free-flowering fuchsia, 'Son of Thumb' has very small, single flowers. The tube and sepals are cerise, complementing the corolla, which is lilac. This fuchsia has a bushy, upright, self-branching habit, reaching a height of 18-24" (45-60 cm).

• 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.
