In shades of intense red and purple the large, double flowers (up to 7cm or 3”) have a subtle, silky appearance. Fuchsia ‘Voodoo’ makes a spectacular addition to summer displays and is an outstanding choice for hanging baskets with its naturally trailing stems that can reach 35cm (14”). Plant either by themselves or combined with other trailing plants like Chaenostoma (syn. Bacopa) or Verbena for a brilliant summer display. - Garden care: For the best results, protect from cold, drying winds. To produce bushy, well-branched plants pinch out the growing tips of young plants after the sixth or seventh pair of leaves. During the growing season water regularly, applying a balanced liquid fertiliser each month. Cut back to the permanent framework in early spring. In autumn, it is advisable to mulch the roots with a thick layer of well-rotted compost.
