                    Joolz this is this years growth .

                    As I saw roots showing from pot I kept repotting and feeding.

                    I should it think so re Canada but am sure there may be a supplier over there.

                      This is a picture of a Fuchsia I spotted on a stroll to P.O. end of June ,discarded onto a patch of waste ground, brought it home potted it up,removed all the flowers ,so it would concentrate and now its flowering again. From its style of new growth i think its a trailer,any ideas on the name and hardiness
