      Hi Jenny, I always think it is much less effort to try to spread a little happiness than it is to spread doom, gloom and sadness, eh?

        I couldn't agree more LyndaG, I stay as positive as I possibly can all the time, sometimes stuff really stirs me up but I soon get over it. If you smile lots & laugh lots it certainly helps! I try to keep away from people who are doom & gloom spreaders, they just deflate & exhaust me! PMA (positive mental attitude is my favourite saying!) :hapfeet:

            Hi @mowgley I have some seeds, but they don't say "alba" on the end of them - happy to share with you if you wish? image.jpg

              Thanks @LyndaG that a kind offer.
              How fast do they grow? (Will they flower in the 1st year?)

                You are very welcome, could you send me your address pls (doesn't have to be your home address - I wouldn't be offended in the slightest x) I'm afraid I have no idea about germination, when they flower, how to sow, what type of soil etc etc, I just bought them because I liked the picture :roflol::roflol: I wonder if one of our resident Fuchsia experts could help us please?

                  Nice choice Freddy , basket of Cecile is hard to beat I grew last year and have a couple of the parent plants in the greenhouse will be taking cutting in the next couple of weeks I found is best in a single basket for best effect , I might try Voodoo this year I have grown before ....

                    Hiya Spruce:blue thumb:

                    Do you mean to only grow this particular plant? I had planned on doing two baskets, with 5-6 'Cecile' in each (no other plants of any kind)
