Sorry Nana - what you see is all that you can get!
That's a good way to describe it Yorkshire.

It was always my triphylla of choice Milky. But last year I did Koralle instead and it was prolific! So this year I'm doing a back to back comparison (that's my excuse anyway).

Meanie:

I really like these dwarf Fuchsias. They're widely grown here in shady spots.

Virtually all the ones posted on the websites above grow here (in deep shade) and most of Coastal California. I have seeds from Randallsd, my neighbor of Fuchsia boliviana. I need to plant them soon. The seeds are very tiny, like Deppea splendens.

I've seen many F. boliviana here and in the San Francisco Bay Area. They can grow very quickly to 20ft/6m tall.
