Fuchias in the City
Buying Fuchsias Around the World
But where, oh where, can I get some fuchsias of my own? Would you believe, even in India?
In the beginning of your time with fuchsias, you often find a plant or two—or maybe even three—at almost any good nursery. Even a lot of box stores. That's great. At some point, you want more. Want different. Maybe you've seen the possibilities of hardy fuchsias in someone's garden? Or an unusual plant in someone's greenhouse? Of course, other gardeners will often happily share their own with you. New fuchsias are easy enough to start from cuttings.

But what if you find yourself wanting a specific plant no one you know has. You know, that beautiful fuchsia that catches your eye from a magazine centerfold? Where do you get that one?

It might take a real bit of detective work to track an elusive target down. In case you haven't noticed, search engines are often not exactly the most brilliant bulbs illuminating the web. Need "fuschia" pumps and panties? "Google's got 'em." Want some real fuchsia flowers? "Welcome to Amazon. We have all your >FUCHSIAS< needs covered." Not quite helpful.

I think Odysseus might have found himself an easier way home via Google, than it is to find the right fuchsia that way on the internet.

To make the search for the real thing just a little bit easier, I’ve listed specialist nurseries or other sources with significant offerings. The world over. Of course, the hardest part is realizing that that special plant for which you've really, really been searching the known universe probably won't be allowed to travel from one intergalactic jurisdiction to another. Sigh.

Got a personal favorite source in a corner of this planet I’ve missed? Let me know and I'll add it to the list. I'm sure there are a lot more out there than my collection. It's a wide, wide world after all, You'll find the Contact Form located under the Welcome Menu.

  • The Obituaries. Whatever happened to that fuchsia nursery? (USA)
  • Delta Farm & Nursery (Eugene, Ore.) .
    Closed in 2009. Owned by fuchsia forces Ron & Faye Spidell, a number of new hybrids originated at this first-rate mail order nursery.
  • Fry Road Nursery (Albany, Ore.) Closed in Fall 2015.
  • Fuchsiarama (Fort Bragg, Calif.) Closed in 2010.
  • Jordan Nursery (Stanwood, Wash.) Closed in March, 2019 due to retirement.
  • Joy Creek Nursery (Scappoose, Ore.) Closed in November, 2021 due to the retirement of the owners.
    ➤ See visit to Joy Creek.
  • Magellanica Gardens (Olympia, Wash.). Closed in May, 2016.
  • Michael’s Fuchsias Galore
    Once hosted at Alladin's Nursery, Watsonville, Calif. There was no on-line presence but Fuchsias Galore’s extensive printed list of hundreds of fuchsias could be ordered by phone or mail. Retired in Sept 2017, Michael Brenneman's fuchsias (he was a.k.a. The Fuchsia Man) were to be continued for sale from the nursery by Pedrick’s Corner but that transfer was blocked by Alladin's Nursery. It was a huge loss.
  • Monnier’s Country Gardens (Woodburn, Ore.)
    Closed in 2009.     Many of Ron Monnier’s fuchsia cultivars, which all start with the tag ‘Debron’s’, are available elsewhere. He is still hybridizing fuchsias in his greenhouse in Northeastern Oregon. Look for new releases. ➤ See visit to Monnier's.
  • Pedrick’s Corner (Freedom, Calif.)
    Sales were temporarily put on hold in 2012 due to a devastating freeze and an unfortunate deer attack on the stock plants. They were never resumed,
  • Possum Run Greenhouse (Belville, Ohio) Closed at an unknown date. The former nursery is currently a "Country Wedding Venue' called the Legacy on Possum Run. One can apparently root one's new life with a wedding in a spacious greenhouse devoid of the fuchsia.
