Lovely pastel colours on that one - demure flowers. Draws me right in. Do you have most of your plants in the ground? I'd love to see a garden view.

At the moment, the rabbits aren't an issue on this side of the peninsula. They seem to plague the area around Butchart Gardens. We have a neighbourhood cat that dispatches all manner of critter, including rabbits, raccoons, and birds :/

Yes, let me know how it goes with the Gartenmeister.

Here is a picture of a cutting of an unknown fuchsia. I can't remember how the flowers look except that they are pink, but the leaves were interesting. They were crispy and glossy. They stood out amongst the other fuchsia. It is nicknamed 'Glossy', but no one knows its name, including the supplier, who has it in her garden. I hope I'm growing it right! I'd hate to lose these little guys (he gave me 2) because I am cutting-challenged.

Gosh, growin, maybe we're the only people who like fuchsia on this forum - nay, on Dave's Garden! Maybe people will prove me wrong with a mad surge of fuchsia postings, I don't know. Maybe...
