The upper surface is dark green and mostly smooth, while the lower surface is lighter mostly hairless or with fine hairs along the veins and edges. The leaf margin has glandular serrations that point towards the tip.
The flowers are solitary growing from the upper leaf axils with a pendulous pedicels (4-)8-20 mm long. Plants bloom in summer around November to March in habitat. The ovary is oblong, 4-5 x 2 mm, covered in fine hairs. The floral tube isred to dark, 4-6 mm x 3.5 mm with a smooth exterior and a slightly hairy interior.

Fuchsia campos-portoi is native to the campos rupestres habitat of the Itatiaia mountain massif, located on the border of Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at elevations ranging from 2,100 to 2,550 meters found growing among rocks. Fuchsia campos-portoi is found in shrubby patches or open, rocky sites, often experiencing winter frosts. It typically grows alongside Fuchsia regia subsp. regia , where several intermediate hybrids between the two species have been discovered. [3]
