Basket Bright Challenging Orange Pink Single Tubular Unusual VKC AM

The name says it all really. One of the longest flowers you can expect to see on a fuchsia. Growth is slender and requires as much pinching out as you can manage, also if you can provide some support for the longer stems it can help. Not an easy fuchsia to shape, but gives a superb display in whatever shape it ends up.

Always attracts comment.

Tube: Astonishingly long and thin, pale pink tangerine sort of colour.

Sepals: White to pink to green at the tips, again, colour varies. Long and slim, horizontal to slightly down, recurved.

Corolla: Darker orange pink, smooth orange petals, 1/4 flared.

Foliage: Mid green.

Parentage: WALZ Harp x Lye's Unique
