Fuchsia 'Alice Hoffman'

 

Fuchsia 'Alice Hoffman'

Fuchsias are grown for their very attractive, usually pendent flowers that are borne continuously from summer to autumn. Hardy types tend to be the larger bush or hedging type, with simple single flowers, which as the name suggests will over winter well. 'Alice Hoffman' is a small shrub with bronze-tinged foliage and semi-double flowers with pink sepals and tube, white petals with pink veining produced from mid-summer through until the first frosts in autumn. To 60cm.
