Alsace


'Alsace' is one of a plethora of red and white fuchsias, but I like it. What I call the "skirt" is actually the corolla. This one has a semi-double skirt that doesn't open the same way most of the red and whites do. The outer edge of the petals stay a bit more curved inwards. Before the flower is fully open, it is a more stricking white against the red than some of the others also. You'll see when I post 'Santa Claus' and 'White Wonder' to name a few. That is going to be a while though, because, as you may have noticed, I am trying to go in alphabetical order :-)
