Red Lady's Eardrops

The Red Lady's Eardrop, scientifically known as Fuchsia Beacon, is a robust and visually striking variety of Hardy Fuchsia, perfect for adding vibrant colour to any garden. Known for its abundant, eye-catching red and purple flowers, this Fuchsia variety is a favourite among gardeners looking for a reliable and long-lasting display of blooms.

The Beacon Fuchsia produces elegant, pendulous flowers that bloom from early summer through to the first frost, providing a continuous splash of colour. The vivid red sepals contrast beautifully with the deep purple petals, making this plant a standout feature in borders, containers, or hanging baskets. Its upright growth habit also makes it an excellent choice for mixed plantings or as a focal point in smaller garden spaces.

The Fuchsia Beacon is an average grower. It prefers a location with partial shade, where it can avoid the hottest part of the day, and thrives in well-drained soil. While it is a hardy plant, regular watering is important to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, ensuring the plant remains healthy and blooming throughout the season.
