*Fuchsia corallina |Garden origin; |Red; |A plant of more vigorous
(Syn. F. |Onagraceae |Summer and|growth, and with larger
exoniensis) | |Autumn |leaves and flowers than any
| | |of the other hardy
| | |Fuchsias. It is very
| | |popular in the West of
| | |England, but is not nearly
| | |so effective when cut to
| | |the ground each winter as
| | |some of the others are.
| | |
*F. globosa |Chili |Red; |A free-growing Fuchsia
| |Summer and|which, if cut to the
| |Autumn |ground, pushes up long,
| | |wand-like shoots that
| | |branch out freely, and
| | |towards the latter part of
| | |the summer are smothered
| | |with bright-coloured
| | |flowers. In the bud state
| | |these are of a globose
| | |shape, hence its specific
| | |name.
| | |
*F. gracilis |Mexico |Red; |The name gracilis well
| |Summer and|expresses the prominent
| |Autumn |features of this Fuchsia,
| | |for, though as vigorous as
| | |globosa, it is far more
| | |slender and graceful. Where
