Rose - Meidiland Fuchsia

Common name: Fuchsia Meidiland Rose

Description: The Fuchsia Meidiland Rose is a vibrant shrub rose known for its profuse clusters of semi-double, fuchsia-pink blooms with a white eye. Each flower measures under 5cm in diameter and has a cupped shape with 8-15 petals. The plant exhibits a bushy growth habit, reaching a height of approximately 60 to 90cm and spreading about 90 to 120cm wide. Its glossy, dark green foliage provides a striking contrast to the vivid blooms. In Melbourne's climate, this rose thrives in well-drained soils with full sun exposure. It is a repeat bloomer, offering continuous flowering from spring through autumn. The Fuchsia Meidiland Rose is particularly valued for its hardiness and disease resistance, making it a low-maintenance choice for gardeners. It's ideal for use as groundcover, in borders, or mass plantings, and it also attracts bees to the garden.
