Can't help you with that one SW ;-)
Seems like there ought to be a nice cute name for it, huh? Can't use Fairy Dancers, another fuchsia already has that name!
Meanwhile, great new photos for the Plant Files GGK!
Looks like you had a good time at Fry's.
'Lottie Hobbie' had me thinking maybe you had identified another one for me that was given to me as a cutting last winter and is now bush. But mine doesn't have that beautiful variegated edging on the leaves. I have seen F. microphylla's and F. minutiflora's, and other tiny varieties. But I haven't been able to figure this one out for sure yet. It has suddenly really begun to grow and is proving to be a robust bush. One would never think it would, just looking at those tiny leaves and tiny flowers. And it is not the same as what Willowwind2 sent me. The flowers and leaves are bigger. Here is a photo I took this week-end. What do you think?
