    Hi All. I have had the below fuschia for many years but would like to buy a another one. It is true I can take cuttings and from this plant and they normally are successful.
    The identification tag got lost ages ago but got this feeling the name of fuschia is something like sorrento or sorreto. Any help would be appreciated.Thank you.
    P.S I am sure there is a fuschia section but be blowed if I could find it :):redface: SAM_0017 (2).JPG

      Good evening @trogre my friend just a respectful suggestion if you put Fuchsia in the search box in the top right of your screen it will show you all the threads relating to your question of Fuchsia ID until one of our friends can answer your question it might help:smile:

        Hi @trogre ,

        So many Fuchsia varieties that look very similar, but think yours may be Celia Smedley, a half hardy type; some images on the web if you seach on that name.

        Yes, you can take cuttings and provided you give them a cool shaded area , preferably covered to retain some humidity they should quickly root.
        Probably the easiest way is to root them in water, then pot them on into compost.

        The main Fuchsia thread is here -
