To identify a fuchsia from a picture is just not possible. There are so many varieties (around 10.000!) and many are very similar. You have to see the whole plant with flowers, buds, foliage and habit of growth, to have a chance. Even then, growing conditions, nutrition, temperatures and time if the season for example can play havock with both you and plants. What you can use the pictures for is confirming a 'suspected' variety or finding flowers/plants with the kind of colour or shape you want to get hold of. Because of this I find it very useful to have several pictures of the same cultivar, and I hope, when you see the difference in the pictures, you'll understand how impossible it is to use pictures for identification. - I will, as I said, eventually add more pictures even on the pages where I already have pictures, so don't be afraid to send pics even if you see I already have them.

("In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice - but in practice, there is".)
