Overwintered noids

Chippewa Lake, OH(Zone 5b)

As some of you know I attempted to overwinter fuchsias here in Zone 5. Due to operator error (me--LOL), these three were the only ones sturdy enough to survive.

However the name tags are long gone to where ever single socks go.

Any guess on i.d. from the leaves? Of course I'll post pics again w/ blooms but thought I'd put these up to announce that I'm back LOL

It is hard to say for certain, because new leaves after the winter can be smaller and lighter in color than later leaves which have had more sun. But I am going to guess that the first one is Walz Juberteen. If the flowers face upwards and are pink, and the plant heads straight upwards also, then I bet that is what it is.
The second one coud be F. lycioides or Marin Glow. They both have a very similiar small round leaf, but Marin Glow is fleshier, thicker. So I think it is Lycioides. That one also, will head for the sky very fast. Whereas Marin Glow is a small compact bush.
The third one could be Chiquitta Maria. From the serrated edges and shape of the leaves. I can't wait to see the blossoms and to see if I guessed right!
