Description
The "Perfect Pollinator™ Pink" Native Fuchsia (a Correa hybrid) showcases delightful pink blossoms that animate gardens from Djeran (Autumn) to Djilba (Early Spring). As a small mounding shrub, its vibrant flowers not only elevate garden aesthetics but also attract a variety of pollinators, reinforcing its reputation as a garden essential.
Whether planted in the ground or in pots, it flourishes most when sandy soils are ameliorated with a good-quality soil conditioner. Ensuring its vibrancy, feed it with a balanced fertiliser during Djeran (Autumn) and Djilba (Early Spring).
