Horticultural Description
Fuchsia Caroline's Hardy is a plant that has been grown in our extended family for 50 years. It is reliably hardy here on the shores of Lake Erie, Zone 6a, although it does brake dormancy late. It makes a beautiful flower covered bush about 30 inches tall. It also works in containers.
“In our Lake Erie greenhouses, this cultivar produces its most vibrant foliage when given consistent morning light and steady warmth. When your order arrives, allow it to settle for 24 hours in indirect light before potting up into fresh, airy potting mix.”
