I have been told that there is an evergreen Fushia. If so does anyone know the name of it and when and where should it be planted?

I think the nearest you can get to evergreen is Fuschia magellanica 'Riccartonii' which is the hardiest. In mild areas it will keep its leaves, unless there is a particularly severe winter. It likes any soil which retains some moisture and is best planted in mid-spring. It can grow to 6 ft.
By the way I bet you are not Useless!

Thank you Mad.
I can assure you that I am useless in the garden. But I keep trying.

Thank You Dido. I have read it and filed it.
