Fuchsia

I have shown this before but never ceases to amaze with the number of blooms it produces this is it's third full blooming this year.
grew it as a half standard from a whip 6 years ago
no idea of the name it is barely hardy

It certainly loves what you do to it Brian! Do you repot every year or just topdress?

I'll think about you when i do my Winston Churchill - that didn't get done this year either.
Do you remember sending me some little ferns? They are all doing well.

Dawn thats the general ideal but where in the glass houses, would not be able to move even though it will be cut back.I did think about my bedroom if I took the king size out and put in a single I could keep a close eye on it.Oh there is a slight problem Pauline and Jamie.lol

That's a fabulous Fuchsia standard, Brian!

For some years I had 3 lovely Fuchsia 'Beacon' standards with 3ft stems of my own creation on our balcony but the winter of 2009/10 killed them off. I haven't made any more since then.
