    Hi,

    I've got this shrub in a pot but have no idea what it is... I was hoping 'd get some idea if it was worth keeping by now. It was practically dead last year but seems to have thrived this year.

    Thanks in advance
    Anita

    :scratch: Well I think it is an odd shaped Fuchsia of some kind, so in my book worth keeping... :WINK1:

      It is certainly a Fuchsia, can`t it go in the garden where you would get more benefit from it?:thumbsup:
