My Mum


'My Mum' is one of the new additions to my collection which I have high hopes for. I bet you know the drill by now ;-), it has the simple corolla I prefer and a definite upright form. I also seem to prefer the ones with white sepals. How about you? But this one is still not the one I am looking for......one of my neighbors down the street has had a fuchsia growing against the chain link fence of their front yard for over a decade. It has made it through many a heat wave, winter freezes, and even snow. The colors almost match this one, but not quite. I am going to have to go ask them if they will let me have a few cuttings. Perhaps they will be interested in trading!
