Triphylla fuchsias bear flowers in terminal racemes, they have longer tubes, short sepals & corolla in bold bright colours. For the best display plant them deep in the pot to encourage lots of shoots from the base, pinch early and often but remember they take longer to come into flower than most fuchsias so don't pinch too late. A winter minimum of 7°C is recommended but we find that most will be ok at lower temperatures, down to 2 or 3°C at night doesn't seem to do much harm.
