Advantages: HARDY, GOOD VALUE, EASY-GROWER

Disadvantages: LATE-FLOWERING

MAGELLANICA AUREA,
Grown for its lovely yellow tiered foliage, which goes gold & red in the full sun.The flowers have long tubes of red & purple sepals(dainty)from June to Oct.
One of the lower growing ones 2/3ft.
This group of hardy fuchsia,s are the hardiest, going as low as -10 if the site is perfect i.e well-drained, not exposed!!
A good- site is a must, as they will last for many years if attention is paid to the depth of planting & the soil.(not to dry)
Benefits from some organic matter/peat dug into flower-beds .Full sun/Partial Shade.

Tips;If they are to get through our long wet Winters & wind-chills of -10 plus, they must be buried deep at least 3-4 inches than they were in the pots!!
Really good value from 80p sml-2.99p large.
If you cant afford nursery prices then try your local markets or car-boots!!
