Fuchsia 'Jennifer Anne'

Sent to me by Gnarleygnome :-), is that the right name Gg can't remember?

Not Paula Jane Simbad. She doesn't have white sepals. The colours are more like Celia Smedley but the flowers look smaller. There are so many, and sometimes the labels are wrong too...I seem to remember Hywel has one rather like this one so he might tell you.

Cor thats come on and to think they were the side shoots I took out when I bought the mini wips , and planted them up in a plastic mushroom tray from the super market and placed a bit of clingfilm on the top thinking they would never root.

I am realy impressed with this variety it flowers for months.

Thanks for sharing Simbad , it so nice to swap and give plants away and I have had so many from members on here as well.

Simbad, if you like those colours have a look at Celia Smedley - same colours but bigger flowers. Some sites say hardy and some disagree, but I haven't overwintered mine outside yet - not before taking some cuttings...

It does look orangey Siris , quite different to any of my others :-)
Thankyou Gg I love it and it'll be coming into the sunroom for the winter :-)
Oooo I 'll have a look Stera , I like the hardy ones thing I've got five now but like you I always take cuttings just in case, so far they've been fine :-)

It not as orange as the one here, nearer scarlet. If you like hardy ones have a look at Potash Nursery's website and tell me if you can resist temptation! (You have to buy six - assorted if you like- but looking is free...I only intended to buy Celia but ended up with five others as well....and I had over a dozen to start with. Is there a Fuchsias Anonymous?)

Hahaha Stera I just looked at the site omg I just kept putting the ones I liked in my basket so many beauties !! , I'll spend the winter being realistic about how many I can actually fit in before placing an order but I definitely will !.
We went to Wentworth castle yesterday and they had a lovely fuschia in the entrance to the woodland mixed with hydrangeas it looked lovely, we're clearing another area of our little wood over the winter so I'll pinch their idea ;-)
