    Welcome galerose, I don't see anything of the flower you mentioned. Do you have a photo or a link?

    Hi there galerose and welcome to GardenStew. :-D The fuchsia in your photograph is one of the double variety and, as Netty says, called 'Dark Eyes.' Did you know that there are over 400 varieties of fuschia? It can sometimes be difficult to know which one you have so I use this website to help me ID them:

    That "double" made me take a double-take. Gorgeous!

    A lovely flower. Looking forward to spring when the garden center has hanging fuchsia baskets. I wish spring came in a bottle then I could pour it on the ground and enjoy it.
