Fuchsia triphylla

Triphylla, Triphylla Type and Tubular Fuchsias

Cultivars of Fuchsia triphylla usually have longer flower tubes than more commonly cultivated types of fuchsia. They also bear leaves in sets of three, rather than two (Triphylla means three leaved). The species is native to sub-tropical regions, so are best grown in pots, which can be brought into a conservatory or greenhouse in autumn. They tolerate more sun than other fuchsias, and produce an abundance of flowers in summer.

I have a Fuchsia ‘Gartenmeister Bonstedt’ in a large pot that has just done wonderfully over spring, summer, and now into fall. I live in Vancouver Washington and my concerns are how to winter over this beauty. As of now it is still outside, and still producing blooms. However i know November will be bringing some cold weather. I got this fushia early this last April and I need some sound advice. Your help will be appreciated! Thanks

Ausgepflanzte Fuchsien vertragen entgegen der weit verbreiteten Meinung auch einen sonnigen Standort. Die Pflanzen entwickeln dann einen gedrungenen Wuchs und blühen reicher als an einem schattigen Platz. Voraussetzung ist aber, dass Sie den Wurzelbereich schattieren, ihn kühl und ausreichend feucht halten.

Caring for a Fuchsia Gartenmeister Bonstedt

This fuchsia variety prefers light shade in the afternoon and does well in foggy conditions. In hot windy dry areas, plant the honeysuckle fuchsia in a protected location. Pick a site with soil that drains well. Fuchsia needs to be planted deeply. Place the crown about 4 to 6 inches below ground level, or half the height of smaller plants. Amend the soil removed from the hole with 1/4 cup of slow-release 16-16-16 fertilizer and 1 cup well-rotted compost.
