This is a really lovely variety of Fuchsia, Hywel! I've also grown it, on two separate occasions, but I don't have it this year which is a shame! I have about 6 or 7 Fuchsias growing on our balcony which are just coming into flower. The majority of them are in the centre of hanging baskets. They are the survivors of the dozen I bought last year from the Blind Society chary shop in town.

Which brings to mind that the Dahlias I also bought there at the same time are also growing again & have buds that will open soon.

This was the first Fuchsia that I ever grew! I always found it easy to take cuttings from too...! ;o)

I've only ever grown it in hanging baskets so the size is very restricted! It's one of my favourite Fuchsias - though I can't think of any Fuchsia I don't like! LOL!
