Fuchsia 'Skyrocket' is a hardy shrub known for its long stems, which can be tied to supports or frames to create a stunning focal point in your garden. This free-flowering variety produces beautiful bicoloured red and white flowers that bloom from dangling pink buds. The flowers grow along the length of the stems, ensuring a long-lasting display. This fuchsia is vigorous with strong, upright growth, making it easy to train onto a trellis or obelisk. It is perfect for patio pots or for planting in sheltered borders in sun or semi-shade. The plant reaches a height of 150cm (59inches) and a spread of 90cm (36inches). Additionally, the modern Tower pot kit includes one large patio pot with a saucer and an attachable four-part frame. The pot features an attractive diamond pattern in burnt gold against a charcoal black background and is made from durable, all-weather-resistant garden plastic. This makes it ideal for any climbing flower or plant. The frame matches the pot in charcoal black with burnt gold embellishments, adding a stylish touch to your garden. To pot Fuchsia 'Skyrocket,' use well-drained compost such as John Innes No.3 and grow the plant in warm, frost-free conditions. While the fuchsia plants are still small, pinch out the growing tips to promote bushier growth and more flowers. Once the plants are well-grown and any risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatize them to outdoor conditions over seven to ten days before planting them in their final positions in patio containers or sunny or semi-shaded borders. Choose a site that offers protection from cold winds during winter. Provide sturdy support, such as a climbing frame or trellis, to support the long stems of the climbing fuchsias as they grow. The plants will be delivered with growing and care instructions. Please note that the images shown are for guidance only and are representative of the expected results from mature plants; actual results may vary due to different growing conditions.
