Fuchsia - Dianna Princess of Wales
Just received and potted up. Warning label on this plant that it is illegal to take unauthorised cuttings. I didn't buy a plant to not take cuttings...

I'll have to be on the lookout. lol.
There are no other details, but i would think that really applies to taking cuttings to sell - do you think? or maybe i should just keep the one plant, i certainly shall not be buying another one!

"Unauthorised cuttings" ? LOL. What on earth are those ? I've never heard of anything so daft !

1st time i've heard of it too. I would never have ordered it if i had realised that. Still, i can't see any police about.lol.
Apparently, reading the label, some of the price of the plant is donated to the Dianna Princess of Wales memorial fund (or whatever it's called) - perhaps that's why??

Hi, how long will it be before we are told what to think, i say you bought the plant, you own the plant, so you do what you like with it.good luck with the cuttings,

Maybe they are trying to avoid market saturation to keep the price up?
I've seen these on plants before and the way I see it is if it's for your own use, what harm can it do?!

Very likely a way of keeping the price up, and there could well be other plants labeled the same - but i haven't noticed them before (shows how observant i am sometimes).
What else?
This photo is of species Fuchsia.
See who else has plants in genus Fuchsia.
