Blacky Fuchsia Plant

Create exotic, show-stopping displays with the semi-double blooms of Blacky! This classic Fuchsia brings a striking contrast with its deep crimson sepals and purplish-black corollas, making it a standout in any garden. With its trailing habit, Blacky is ideal for bedding, hanging baskets, and patio planters, adding drama and elegance to shaded spots or areas with partial sun.

Blooming continuously from summer until the first hard frost, Blacky is designed to impress all season long. While no heavy maintenance is required, deadheading the faded blooms will extend the flowering period and keep your display looking fresh. Whether cascading from baskets or filling up planters, this Fuchsia brings color, charm, and a touch of mystery wherever it's placed.

Grown without harmful pesticides, our Blacky Fuchsia plants arrive healthy and ready to thrive, giving your garden a long-lasting, low-maintenance burst of color.
