If your garden palette needs a burst of golden sunshine, Colorburst™ Yellow Cape Fuchsia delivers in radiant style. This standout Cape Fuchsia dazzles with clusters of buttery-yellow tubular blooms that shimmer above lush pine-green foliage from late spring straight through fall. It's the kind of color that turns heads, hums with pollinator activity, and refuses to fade as the season rolls on.
Compact, tidy, and easygoing, Colorburst™ Yellow Cape Fuchsia keeps its shape beautifully without spreading or overtaking the space around it. Growing with a balanced, mounding form, it's the perfect pop of brightness for borders, pollinator gardens, or sunny mixed plantings. Rated for cold hardiness zones 7–10, it's an ideal fit for gardeners who want consistent color and effortless charm.
This South African native is naturally deer and rabbit resistant, moderately drought tolerant once established, and adored by hummingbirds and butterflies alike. With its long bloom window, compact size, and ability to handle heat with ease, Colorburst™ Yellow Cape Fuchsia is a golden ticket to low-maintenance beauty that shines all season long.
