Fuchsia 'Preston Guild' - 2011 (Fuchsia 'Preston Guild')

This fuchsia is not reliably hardy so I treated it as summer bedding, growing it instead of busy lizzies. All ten plants survived the winter!

Sticki - it's a bush variety

Scotkat - go to the RHS website and use Plant Finder.
I bought mine at a little fuchsia nursery near Aldershot but they don't do mail order

Can't believe it got through that winter - it ought to be called survivor!
