Marinka Fuchsia Plants produce large, stunning blossoms in the purest shade of red. This trailing variety looks wonderful in containers and hanging baskets! Fuchsia is a season long bloomer for hummingbird gardens.

Our Marinka Fuchsia Plants are grown without harmful pesticides, ensuring they are safe for your garden and the environment. Guaranteed to arrive alive and thriving!

Planting Instructions:

  • - Plant in spring after the last frost date
  • - Space plants 12-18 inches apart, depending on the variety

Soil Preparation:

Watering Specifics:

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer weekly during the growing season
  • - Switch to a high-potassium fertilizer in late summer to encourage blooming

Pruning and Training:

  • - Plants can be trimmed back by 1/3 once the flowering slows down. This will help the plant to push out a new round of flowers.

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Watch for common pests like aphids, whiteflies, and spider mites
  • - Monitor for diseases such as botrytis and root rot in overly wet conditions

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Produces pendant-shaped flowers in various color combinations

  • - Cannot tolerate frost; bring indoors or protect when temperatures drop below 40°F
  • - May stop blooming in extreme heat

Companion Plants for Fuchsia:

Fuchsias pair well with plants that thrive in similar shaded, moist conditions and complement their pendulous blooms. Some excellent companions include:

  • - Begonias: These shade-loving plants offer attractive foliage and flowers
  • - Impatiens: Providing a carpet of colorful blooms in shaded areas
  • - Coleus: With their vibrant foliage, coleus add texture and color contrast
  • - Heuchera: These perennials offer attractive foliage in various colors

Vibrant, beautiful plant

This was a new fuchsia experiment for me. The two marinkas I bought arrived proud and upright with the tiny hints of buds. Three weeks later, they’ve tripled in size and have prolific bright red blooms. Well worth the purchase!

Growing well

Plants are in hanging baskets and growing well.

Healthy plants

You can not find red fuchsia plants in my area. My plants arrived in packaging that fully protected each plant. I have potted them and they are doing great.

Gorgeous Red Stems

This Marinka arrived right when it was supposed to. It was packaged very securely, along with 2 other fuchsias. They were very healthy and happy when they arrived, and in 2 weeks have grown noticeably. This one in particular is amazing. Her stems are dark red and the same color blends into the green leaves. I was looking at her again this morning and some of her leaves contain a deep red tint. These fuchsias are amazing.
