PRETTY BALLERINA... FUCHSIA

#AbFav_PINK_ACCENTS_

 

A Fuchsia flower from the garden. So delicate and pretty and in one of my favourite colour-combinations!

Fuchsia is a genus of flowering plants that consists mostly of shrubs or small trees.

The first, Fuchsia triphylla, was discovered on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola (present day Dominican Republic and Haiti) in 1703 by the French Minim monk and botanist, Charles Plumier.

He named the new genus after the renowned German botanist Leonhart Fuchs

The vast majority of garden hybrids have descended from a few parent species.
