Fuchsias - 2016

No problem

 

A hardy Fuchsia I bought this year ... called Rufus :-



It's bright red, not like the photo ... and it's waiting to be planted in the ground.

Another hardy one whith dainty smallish flowers, and it seems to get rather tall ... Foxgrove Wood :-

 

Hi Michael,
I'm trying " Rufus " for the first time tho year as well. It's one of the many I'm still waiting to flower

 

You'll be pleased with the flowers Anthony. It's bright red

 

Ooh Woo ,

You're a mere apprentice

Get another 125 and you'll beat me by ...... ONE.

 

Fuchsia - Jose Tamerus :-

 

Now there's an eyeful! I like that Michael!

 

Thank you @Sheal

I forgot to write this when I posted the photos ...
The man who owned the nursery where I bought it, said it was one of his stock plants, but he'd finished with it - not going to sell it any more ... so I asked if I could buy it from him and he said I could. I think I gave him £1 for it

 

You've got yourself a bargain!

Not as many ( or strong ) stripes as yet, probably the hot, dry weather :(

 

This is such a pretty single, but It wasn't labelled. It's a bush about 2' high, smallish leaves and flowers. I've got a feeling it's hardy but I'm wondering if perhaps @Michael Hewett or @Ian Taylor can help. Please.

 

Lady Thumb ??

 

Nah, sorry Michael.

Different flower shape and way too tall and pink, also the buds are white turning to pink.

Thanks though

 

OK, it was just a thought ... I'll have another think
