Beautiful! I don't know if I'm allowed to ask this, but do you sell on ebay by any chance?

What a great Photo. When was it taken? It's making me dream of summer.

I put one in last summer and although the leaves didn't make it, the plant itself is doing OK. It sure lights up a fence like nothing else and it grows so fast that I'm looking forward to a fence of it this year.

I took this photo at the greenhouse where they grow these passion vines.........they look like this all year..in the greenhouse...I sell them on E-bay..in Houston if you grow them on a south wall they will bloom all fall and winter..you should see the fuchsia house if you want to fall in love

A greenhouse! Of course. That's why so many blooms at one time. Mine is on an East facing fence and it was happy last year. My only real issue is temperature. But thanks for the stroll through the greenhouse.

And I love fuschias. Particularly here where Fuschia Mites have taken over our fuschia's. The insidious things can only be treated with systemics. There are a few resistant varieties - but not the fabulous ruffly kind. I miss them.
