Amazing cacti and fabulous fuschias too!

Oh thank you for showing the cacti :o) I can see lots that I've got ... and lots that I WANT ! lol

And the Fuchsias are wonderful too ... They're another of my passions, and I've got lots of different varieties (but I haven't shown many on here this year)

This blog is great - my two most loved plants - Cacti and Fuchsias ... and I've put it on my favs :D

They were Louisa, lots of lovely colours - especially one with a very dark almost black flower.

Aw your welcome Hywel, I just wish I'd taken the pictures of the big stand in stages, then the cacti would've been clearer. The light level wasn't very good where the fuchsias were staged, using the flash for some was fine, but, with others the colours didn't turn out right. Glad you liked them!

The "cowboy cactus" I have is just over 2ft and years old - I named it 'Chisum'!
