Unlike the large-flowered pendant fuchsias most often grown in hanging baskets, 'Gartenmeister Bonstedt' is a Triphylla-type fuchsia with an upright, bushy habit and distinctively long, narrow tubular blooms in a warm, deep orange hue that is irresistible to hummingbirds. The velvety, dark bronzed foliage provides a dramatic, jewel-toned backdrop that makes the bright orange-red blooms glow with extraordinary warmth and intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese Professional Grade 4\" plants are grown to the highest nursery standards, producing well-developed root systems that establish quickly and bloom generously throughout the warm growing season.
