    Hmmmmm..... I would say we are somewhat complicit.... Besides, we are only discussing how to ensure your future garden is well adorned with beautiful fuchsias

              I don't know that I'm that keen on the neighbours. That one on the right looks a bit of a dodgy character to me :)

                No abuse, no loud music, no revving cars or blasting horns, they can be a bit nosey though. :biggrin: The prominent white one in the middle was hand reared, so very friendly. What more could you want! :heehee:

                        This year I've grown six standard Fuchsias from cuttings taken in Sept/Oct.
                        Three table (miniature) and three half (around 3').
                        Here is the first one to flower, a mini Alice Hoffman.

                                Some lovely looking fuchsias here, mine are very very late this year with most of them just about to bloom (apart from Genii which is already in bloom for a week or so).

                                p.s. @Anthony Rogers - that Other Fellow looks nice, is it a real hardy sort for you outdoors? What is the actual colour do you find (as I've seen a wide variation it seems)?

                                Thanks
