Fuchsia

I don't know the name of it,but its hardy and the Bumbles love it,on thing I've noticed they don't go in under to get at the nectar but rather at the top of the flower,hopefully the pictures make sense.




The little bit of scarring.

What a lovely bush. We had a large one like that at my childhood home.

We planted a small fuchsia bush a few months ago, it appears to be thriving.
