Cape Fuschia

Plant Type:

SUN PERENNIALS

Phygelius x capensis 'Moonraker' - This lovely Cape Fuschia is loaded with long, light yellow trumpets heralding the long, poteic days of summer in style. 'Moonraker' is just beautiful in the mixed perennial garden. Cutting spent stems will rejuvenate and engender extended bloom. More often found growing in California we believe that it might be a perfect coastal or mid-Atlantic herbaceous candidate. Cape Fuschia may languish in the humid heat of southern summers, however. Will slowly spread if happy into a stunning clump. Full sun in fertile, draining soil. Cutting grown.
