Wellington Fuschia Society

Welcome to Wellington Fuschia Society

Our club, the Wellington Fuschia Society, is a haven for gardening enthusiasts who share a deep appreciation for the stunning fuchsia plant. Based in the heart of Wellington, we are a dedicated group committed to fostering knowledge and passion for these beautiful blooms. Our society offers a welcoming space for both seasoned gardeners and newcomers to learn, connect, and celebrate the art of horticulture. With a focus on fuchsias, we dive into every aspect of cultivation, care, and display, ensuring there’s always something new to explore.

Nestled in Moera, Lower Hutt, our monthly gatherings take place at the Moera Community Hall on Randwick Crescent, a central and accessible location for Wellington locals. This vibrant region, known for its strong community spirit and lush green spaces, provides the perfect backdrop for a gardening club like ours. Whether you’re from Lower Hutt or elsewhere in the Wellington area, you’ll find our society a friendly hub to share tips, tricks, and a mutual love for fuchsias. Our events often draw attendees from across the region, creating a diverse and dynamic group.

What We Offer

At the Wellington Fuschia Society, our monthly meetings are packed with engaging activities. From in-depth discussions on fuchsia varieties to practical workshops on cultivation techniques, there’s something for everyone. We also host plant sales, giving members the chance to expand their collections, and fun raffles that add a bit of excitement to every gathering. Beyond our regular meet-ups, we proudly join forces with the Hutt Valley Horticultural Society and the Wellington Begonia Circle to present a spectacular Summer Show each February, showcasing the best of local horticulture.

Staying connected is easy with our monthly newsletter, distributed to members every month except December. It’s filled with updates, tips, and insights to keep your gardening passion alive year-round. As an affiliate of the National Fuchsia Society of New Zealand, we’re part of a wider network of fuchsia lovers, offering even more opportunities to learn and grow. Our society is more than just a club; it’s a community where friendships blossom alongside our beloved plants.
