Colorburst™ Yellow Cape Fuchsia (Phygelius)

(Cape Fuchsia) Phygelius Colorburst™ Yellow, also known as Cape Fuchsia, is a cheerful, compact perennial that lights up the garden with vibrant yellow, tubular blooms from late spring through fall. Its long, trumpet-shaped flowers hang gracefully above glossy green foliage, creating a bold display that adds warmth and energy to garden beds and containers. The blooms are rich in nectar, attracting hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees throughout the growing season. This sunny perennial thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soil. Hardy in zones 7–10, Colorburst™ Yellow maintains a tidy, compact form, reaching 18–24 inches tall and wide. Its size makes it ideal for front-of-border plantings, mixed perennial beds, containers, and pollinator gardens. Deer and rabbit resistant, this low-maintenance variety is also moderately drought tolerant once established. To encourage ongoing flowering, remove spent blooms regularly. In early spring, trim back any damaged or woody stems to promote fresh, vigorous growth and maintain its compact habit. With its sunny color, easy-care nature, and strong pollinator appeal, Phygelius Colorburst™ Yellow is a fantastic choice for gardeners looking to brighten up their outdoor spaces with a long-lasting, wildlife-friendly perennial.
