Fuchsia hybrida
The majority of fuchsia species are native to Central and South America. The fuchsia received its name in honour of Leonhart Fuchs (1501-1566) who occupied the chair of Medicine at the Tübingen University from the age of 34 until his death. Besides his medical knowledge, he studied plants. This was natural, as most of the remedies of the time were herbal and the two subjects were often inseparable.
