Popular Types of Fuchsia Plants to Grow

Fuchsia plants offer dazzling diversity, from trailing groundcovers to small trees. If you’re seeking a lush, spreading habit ideal for hanging baskets or edging, Fuchsia procumbens (Creeping Fuchsia) is a standout choice. This native groundcover produces cheerful, unusual flowers and small decorative berries.

For those interested in adding height and a native twist to the garden, Fuchsia excorticata (Tree Fuchsia) is a unique, small tree prized for its beautiful papery bark and nectar-rich flowers that attract native birds. If you prefer a sturdy shrub that promises ornate, long-lasting blooms, Fuchsia arborescens is a fantastic option, offering clusters of delicate pink and purple flowers.

Anyone craving a classic cottage garden look should consider Fuchsia 'La Campanella', which features masses of bell-shaped blooms well suited to pots or mixed borders.

Choosing Healthy Fuchsia Plants

When exploring where to buy fuchsia plants, always select strong, well-rooted specimens. Look for vigorous leaves with no visible spotting or mottling, and avoid plants with wilted foliage or any signs of disease. Root systems should be well established, not pot-bound or with circling roots. Whether you’re shopping for tried-and-true varieties or newer cultivars, buying from a trusted New Zealand nursery ensures high-quality plants prepared for local growing conditions.

Where to Find Fuchsia Plants in New Zealand

You can find fuchsia plants at specialist nurseries, local garden centres, and dedicated online plant shops. Because fuchsias come in a range of forms — from prostrate groundcovers to statement shrubs and trees — it pays to check that the nursery offers true-to-type plants suited for your needs. Browse our curated selection on this site, including popular varieties like Fuchsia procumbens (Creeping Fuchsia), Fuchsia 'La Campanella', Fuchsia arborescens, and Fuchsia excorticata (Tree Fuchsia) for reliable, healthy stock.
