        Hi Spruce
        Try one of the triphyllas, they well take the full sun and make a good talking point.

            Thank you all for your kind words.
            John i was born in Guildford many moons ago,spent my childhood living there.
            Dai & Spruce lived in Crosskeys for 7 years, made many good friends down that way. Porthcawl {buttybay} has always been my bolt hole if i need to think things over, Hoping to get down that way next year for a wee break.
            Well thanks again for the warm welcome and look forward to joining in the posts.
            Bob

                Another welcome to Bob from North Yorkshire.
                Enjoy your stay with GC.
                I to have several Fuchsia in baskets and one indoors which is doing rather well.
                I think so anyway.....
                Looking forward to your input Bob.

                Robert of Yorkshire.

                  Many thanks again for the warm welcome.
                  And please dont be afraid to ask questions about Fuchsias, as i said i grow around 400, mainly exhibition, I Show at the BFS Scottish show and Central Scotland show and Ayr flower show [but due to work unable to make Ayr this year].
                  As the saying goes Fuchsia folk are frendly folk.
                  Happy growing
                  Bob
