This vigorous, upright fuchsia develops tall, bushy stems that can be trained onto supports like trellis or wires for a climbing effect. It produces a long season of small to medium-sized single flowers, each with crimson tubes and sepals and a deep purple-black corolla.
Flowering heavily from midsummer to the first frosts, it brings reliable colour to walls, fences and large containers. Though not a true climber, its tall, arching habit makes it ideal for vertical interest in sheltered, sunny or part-shaded spots.
Fuchsia 'Lady Boothby' is relatively hardy in milder areas of the UK and benefits from regular pruning and tying in for structure and shape. Great for wildlife-friendly gardens and low-maintenance summer impact.

For border planting, choose a sunny sheltered spot. Dig a hole twice the size of the rootball, scatter some mycorrhizal fungi on the roots and mix some well-rotted compost into the excavated soil and backfill.
For best results in containers, pot up using a good quality potting compost or loam based compost ensuring good drainage.
Fuschias require regular watering to aid establishment and during active growth. Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each month.
Border plants benefit from mulching in winter for cold temperature protection. Prune in spring to maintain form and to encourage new growth.
Pot grown plants should be overwintered in a sheltered or frost-free spot, while those growing in borders will benefit from winter protection such as horticultural fleece.
