This is a proposed new design for plant pages on my website, and a sneak preview of some of the fuchsias in the Fuchsia Garden
I hope you like it :)

Those are lovely, Sam!

I tried fuschias years ago before i knew anything about gardening...I had always admired them. I was not successful, but this reminds me I may need to try again!

Thanks!

I really like the design of the page, Sam. And I love the pics of the fuchisias you have. I especially like the white and purple one, very lovely. Thanks for posting. :cool:

They are beautiful pictures. I like your page and how it is laid out.
I have always loved fuchsias and have grown them for many years.
One vacation in 1986, my husband took me to San Francisco and out to Alcatraz Island. We were walking around the exterior of the prison buildings and there were these beautiful, blooming, weeping, tree like plants.
I broke off the tour to see what the plant was and it turned out to be fuchsias that had grown to the size of small trees and were weeping over the edge of a retaining wall. I had no idea they could get so big. One of the highlights of my trip.
