"The Fuchsia Autumnale, 'Fuchsia hybrid', is a early blooming Fuschia with exceptional uniformity and compact growth. The red sepal/purple corolla flowers perch on a splendid trailing Fuschsia distinquished by pure gold leaves flushed with purple and orange. This Proven Selections plant blooms all summer long. Keep the soil moist to the touch from spring through autumn. In many parts of the country (and especially if planted in a hanging pot) the fuchsia will require daily watering.For zones 8-11, this plant can also be a perennial."
