Good plant #132 - Fuchsia 'Genii'

This is a well-behaved, tough (generally hardy) and pretty fuchsia.  Cut it back as near to the ground in Spring and you will be rewarded with a compact, flowering shrub with golden green leaves.

This plant loves sunny-ish sites, moist and fertile soil.

You can take cuttings as soon as the new growth gets underway and these will flower in the same year.
