Description
Rockin’ Fuchsia salvia features vivid fuchsia-pink flower spikes above green foliage, adding height and pollinator interest to summer beds and large containers. Plants generally grow about 24–36 inches tall and wide, with an upright, branching habit.
Growing Rockin’ Fuchsia in Alabama
Choose full sun or a site with a little afternoon shade during extreme heat. Plant after the last spring frost in well-drained, reasonably fertile soil. Water thoroughly during establishment and during extended dry periods, but avoid saturated roots. Allow room for airflow in humid conditions and feed lightly if growth slows.
Flowers can continue through much of the warm season and attract hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies. Rockin’ Fuchsia is frost tender, so grow it as a summer annual across much of Alabama or protect container plants before freezes.
