Hi Katye...

This is the description for Cat Dancer - salmon pink with lavender rose eyezone above radiating lime green throat, 4.5" bloom X 28" height, Dormant, Mid season Diploid (Moore 1992) this is the ebay person I bought it from....ccory1234, Kentucky.

I got a lot of my dahlia tubers including Art Deco from Zanna1 on ebay, she sells some very nice glads also.

The Fuchsia is 5 years old and I trim it every year or it would be a lot taller. It is hardy and I will go out and check the name in the next day or so and d-mail it to you. Right now it is 4' and that is the height I will keep this one at. I have another that I trim to about 30" and keep it there all year. I plant all fuchsias in the ground next to the house and have never lost one...even last year our weird winter. I have Lena from a hanging basket I put it in the ground after the 1st year..it has been there 2 years and does great,

By next spring I might have enough to share...we will see...I have already committed to sharing the dahlia with another DG'er. I also believe we could do a soft cutting of the fuchsia...but I am sure spring is a better time to do it. I will try now though and if it works I could mail it...nothing ventured nothing gained!

I think I covered all the questions...if not let me know. Here is a closeup of the flower on the fuchsia..

Happy gardening, Carla
