Fuchsia ‘Genii’ – Golden-Leaved Hardy Fuchsia with Vibrant Contrast

Fuchsia ‘Genii’ is a distinctive and eye-catching hardy fuchsia, valued as much for its bright golden foliage as for its colourful flowers. The luminous yellow-green leaves provide a strong contrast in the garden, bringing light and vibrancy even when the plant is not in bloom.

From early summer through to autumn, it produces elegant, pendant flowers with deep red sepals and rich purple corollas, creating a striking contrast against the golden foliage. The combination of foliage and flower colour makes ‘Genii’ a standout feature in mixed planting schemes.

Its upright, bushy habit forms a well-balanced shrub, making it suitable for borders or large containers. It works particularly well when used to brighten darker areas of the garden or to contrast with deeper green planting.

Thriving in sun or partial shade, it prefers moist, well-drained soil and benefits from some shelter, especially in more exposed locations. As a hardy variety, it will die back in winter and regrow from the base in spring.

Reliable and easy to grow, it requires minimal maintenance, with a simple cut back in early spring encouraging fresh, vigorous growth.

Bold, colourful, and full of contrast, Fuchsia ‘Genii’ is an excellent choice for adding brightness and long-lasting interest to the garden.
