Upright and Trailing Fuchsias
Flowers of the Fuchsia genus are extravagantly rich in color and so evocative of petticoats and ballet tutus that many of us have childhood memories of plucking and twirling these hanging, tubular blossoms like dancers. Hummingbirds adore them due to their rich nectar and pigments in the red range, including crimson, oranges, pinks (rosy white to magenta), and purples.
