Favorite Fuchsias
A list of some of the best and some of my favorite fuchsias at the moment. The list is performance related and based loosly on how well they have performed this year in the following areas.
- Surviving the winter.
- Surviving the vine weevils, whitefly and red-spider mite.
- Surviving the summer.
- Surviving my tender loving care (over-watering, under-watering etc.)
