Fuchsia identification

carolinewilliamsavon · July 2019

Hi, is anyone able to identify this fuchsia please? We've grown it from a cutting taken from a plant that my husband's grandfather had, but have no idea what it's called. I've had a brief look on the web, but don't really know where to start. Many thanks!

With so many cultivars you may as well be looking for a needle in a haystack. Maybe worth going through the illustrated listings on The British Fuchsia Society's website on: https://www.thebfs.org.uk/gallery.asp the navigation is very early 90s but has very many named cultivars.

To add to the difficulty cameras can make subtle changes to the colours in pics.
As amancalledgeorge says it is virtually impossible
I have a wonderful veru old book...1,000..Fuchsia. a Colour Guide.
On Amazon for 94p

There is apparently another book part 2 another 1,000!
