Southgate Fuchsia dangles soft pink and white bells on slim stalks above a neat, bushy plant whose stems flush from green to dark purple. Fuchsia 'Southgate' arrives as a live 4-inch plant and flowers from summer into fall.

This is a patio plant first: compact enough for a window box, a mixed pot or a bedding block at the front of a border, and happiest in a bright, sheltered spot with steady moisture. Pinch the tips in spring for a fuller frame, keep the spent flowers picked, and the show runs on for months. The stems cut well for small arrangements.

Fun fact: those pendant tubular flowers are not a styling choice. Most fuchsias are bird-pollinated, built for hummingbirds that hover below the bloom and drink upward.
