Colorburst™ Orange Cape Fuchsia is a celebration of bold color and confident garden presence. Tall, upright stems lift vivid red-orange tubular flowers above fresh green foliage, creating a glowing display that stands out from a distance. The saturated color is warm and lively, offering a look that feels both tropical and refined.
Blooming from late spring through fall, this cape fuchsia provides months of reliable color without spreading or becoming unruly. Its tidy, mounded habit makes it an excellent choice for borders and backdrops, while its strong vertical form allows it to act as both a "thriller" and a "filler" in mixed perennial beds. The flowers are perfectly shaped to attract hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies, turning the garden into a hub of activity.
Easy to grow and heat tolerant, Colorburst™ Orange Cape Fuchsia thrives in sunny locations with well-drained soil. Once established, it handles short dry spells and resists browsing from deer and rabbits. Whether anchoring a sunny bed, energizing a patio, or adding color to a pollinator garden, this cape fuchsia delivers dependable performance with unmistakable flair.
