Wow, Zany, this is so pretty, I love that purple and white.The white is such a great contrast with the deep purple. It seems like white in fuschias is a little rarer.
I loved the color on this one too! It has huge blooms that really pop out at you. This is number 7 in my small collection now and I love them all. I heard there is a large double with yellow out there somewhere but I have'nt found it yet and am beginning to think it is just a rumor.
Zany I just love the white on that fuchsia. It's what makes the bloom so beautiful. I have never seen that variety. Great photo.
Thanks broots. It is new to me also. I was at the store to pick up some plaster and this beauty just screamed at me to take it home.
It`s beautiful, zany
Nice fuchsia-I have a couple of nice ones also-live not too far from you in Eureka

Hi Shinny, nice to see someone else from this area on the forums. I bought this one at Shaffers in Eureka. It is a year old (for me) and still blooming wonderfully. We do have the ideal climate for fuscia here!
Strever, I have to work and will miss it :~( So take lots of pictures and taunt me with all I missed! Local coverage will take a couple pics for the paper and that's it. Wish I could afford to take the day off for it!
Strever, I thought about missing a chance to meet some DG friends and decided to make arrangements at work so I can be there. Too good an opportunity to pass up! So I look forward to meeting you!
