I took this picture and loved the flower, but didn't know what it was. I am such a lousy gardener. I take better pictures, I think.

juneappal wrote: Beautiful shot - There are several varieties of fuchsia (fuCshia) with very similar flowers. From what I can see of the leaf pattern, I would guess it is a magellanica gracilis. The Swedish Botanical Society has a website that might help <http://www2.dicom.se …as/thumbsspecies.html>  ; Their pictures are nowhere near as nice.Thanks Juneappal, I emailed them to see if they can identify it's correct name and all. Thanks for the nice comment also.
