A superb, short-jointed fuchsia with all the grace and charm you'd expect from a child of 'Lillian Annetts'. Sid Garcia breeds very fine fuchsias and this one is no exception. The flowers are held outwards, enhancing the display.
We've seen a very nice fan trained example exhibited.
Tube: Fairly short, slightly rounded, very pale pink.
Sepals: Pinkish white, with distinctly green tips, held half up, tips recurved.
Corolla: Opens deep lavender with a pale patch at the base of each slightly wavy and ruffled petal. Matures to pinkish mauve, 3/4 flared.
Parentage: Lillian Annetts x Grandad Hobbs.
