Fuchsia Claudia Denter – Fuchsia of the Week 28/2014

is the result of the creativity of one of the most successful hybridizer from Germany: Waltraud Dietrich

Since the early 90´s this ingenious hybridizer from Munich introduced more than 250 Fuchsias, but lately stopped to do so due to old age. The result of the crossbreeding of “MS Mumm 50” and “Waldis Isabel” is the Hybrid Claudia Denter. It was introduced 2008 and given the name of the 2. Chairwoman and Internet Apointee of the German Fuchsia Society.

Claudia Denter is celebrating her birthday this week, and therefore “her” Fuchsia is Fuchsia of the week: Happy Birthday!

My plant of this hybrid is quite young, at that 1 year old. Overwintering was no problem, and I already started propagating it.

Despite receiving the right amount of fertilizer the growth is up to now more on the slow side, but there are many middle sized blossoms, showing this remarkable, lucent color.

 

 

 

It might be that- up to now- I did not find the proper place for this hybrid, therefore I will try different  locations and observe the outcome.
