anyhow, before i further digress, i took some pics of the fuchsia when they started to bud. *i was extremely excited because the plants were real tiny and i have never planted fuchsia before.
conditions needed: -according to the plant tag, fuchsia like shaded place (I place mine south facing, under the eaves) and they need good drainage and regular watering (ie daily)i bought 4 of them and the names are - celia smedley, beacon rise, sunset and genii. looking at the names, i can almost guess their colours, beacon rise, sunset will have pink colour in it.
anyways when beacon rise starts to bud, (check 2nd row left pic), i was extremely overjoyed.
a few days apart, celia smedley also budded. HEHEHE!!!!!! - can tell celia smedley is going to be white by the light coloured bud.
actually, the plant tag also has a small pic on it but nothing beats the plant flowering physically plus due to transportation, poor organisation, sometimes wrong tag gets placed into the plants.
first set of pics are taken early Nov. 2nd set (below) taken mid November.
check out celia smedley, top left, i love how the flowers look- it has big , white and pink and dark red petals. i flipped up the flowers to check out the inside.below is the beacon rise, flower is of smaller size but the whole tree is covered with bud.
as of writing, genii and sunset are also budding.
anyhow, i totally recommend celia smedley , seems like a reliable plant, beacon rise is recommended for people who likes the pink colours.
