Here is a surprise survivor in the front of the orchard garden. I planted two of these hardy fuchsia plants over twenty years ago. Since then, the bed they lived in has been inundated with raspberry canes, a winter hazel shrub, and more. But when I went out to the get the mail a few weeks ago, one fuchsia branch had found its way out of the crowd and into the spotlight. This is a particularly graceful hardy fuchsia cultivar with delicate leaves and blooms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
