1994 Nishinomiya Plant Research Center & Suntory Flowers Ltd. (Japan)
Bush, Single
The Angel Earrings' "Bush Type" is one of the first introductions
of this fuchsia family marketed in 1994.
It grows vigorously, making a large bush or shrub if planted in a bed and
left to its own device, as shown in the second photo (The first closeup
photo is my plant).
The plant is about 10 years old (as of May 2010) and about 1 m high.
It is regrettable that this cultivar is not distributed nationwide any
longer. You can purchase it only in Nishinomiya city now. I believe it
has a high potential as a garden plant in hot climates, as shown in the
photo.
The photo was taken in Rokutanji park, Nishinomiya city near Kobe.
