Someone was throwing this away and gave it to me. At first I thought it would be a fuchsia but it's very shiny and looks very tender so I'm not sure. Does anyone know?
I think that might be a young leucothoe. The new leaves look to have a marbling to them which smacks of that genus, particularly L. fontanesiana 'Rainbow'. HC
Thanks for the replies nodlisab and Hortum-create.
I looked up the leucothoe and seems right to me. I think I'll keep it potted for a while - read it's a slow grower. Then again, it may progress better in the ground? If it is leucothoe I have the ideal place for it and am quite excited about the prospect of seeing if I can keep it well with this in mind.

Definitley not a Fuchsia
