Edible Fuchisa berry?

Just know this plant from T&M email, has anyone grow it before?

Is it worth to try?

 

Can't contol myself, have ordered 5 plants for £4.99

 

What plant?

 

I know the feeling

 

Fuchisa berry

 

I think all fuchsia berries are edible, just not that tasty.
If its T&M its bound to be a scam.

 

Have you got a link because..................

Pete's right!

Tracy - there are thousands of Fuchsia species and cultivars. Knowing T&M it will be a fairly easily found cultivar that has some of the better berries (most are indifferent but there is a trick to getting better tasting berries) with a hefty price tag!

If it is not taste good, should I cancel it?

 

Well...............it shows the flowers of two different plants, both of which look common enough. @Anthony Rogers and @Michael Hewett can advise better no doubt. But the flower in the bowl looks like the one that I take the berries from and that one is totally hardy. For the best berries grow in full sun and water well.
To be honest the grandiose blurb reminds me of their blurb for "the climbing Fuchsia" Lady Boothby. It is not a climbing Fuchsia just a tall growing not very bushy variety that needs tying in!

 

I already buy some normal red blue one, and a ballet girl, just excited about the edible, if it taste normal, then maybe i don't need it

 

I'm a little dubious but Anthony and Michael will know better. The only way to truly know is to try though.

 

Dont want to put you off as such @Tracy_x , but T&M are known for taking the normal, and making it sound like a fantastic new idea.
Just dont expect too much.

 

Ok thank you very much. I will cancel it. And maybe buy something else

 

I occasionally eat fuchsia berries off my plants, they are not unpleasant, a bit seedy, but I've never had enough to do anything with. I have heard of people making fuchsia jam.
As for T&M I went off them when I realised that most of the photographs in the catalogue were close ups with no indication scale. So you bought something expecting good sized flowers only to be disappointed.

 

Can't find how to cancel it in their website. So send an email to cancel it. Thanks very much everyone
