Fuchsia Hawkshead

I love fushias although not some of the more gawdy colours, this looks as pure as snow ;-)

Hawkshead I believe is a hardy fuchsia I used to have it in my garden in South Wales it looks really lovely.

I can grow it then....that's good...like it's form and colour. Looks like a swan taking off...lol

Yes white horse Hawkshead it is a smallish variety of fuchsia but looks great.I grew one as a small (1/4) standard many years ago.

! letm dry on the Plant then San :) Ul know 4 sure then that theyl be Mould/Dust Free :) x

thanx jacque i will keep my eyes peeled x

Strange winter just gone - we had this last year & moved it to the top courtyard, which is sheltered & good for the more tender plants, & lost it!!
Yet one of the tender varieties in a hanging basket sprang back into life in the spring despite having been put down the bottom (more exposed) part of the garden!

I tryed to get this fuchsia today but my local GCentre did not have any hardy fuchsias:(
