For Cee’s FOTD
Yolanda calls this flower an arete..or earring flower, so if she is correct, it is a white fuchsia, which I’d never seen before Pasiano brought me this plant. We’ll see what happens when that little round ball opens up. She’s probably right .

I think you are right. It has only bloomed once before and I can’t remember if that little white ball turns into a red or a white “earring.” We’ll know tomorrow. Thanks for the scientific name. We used to call them bleeding hearts but I’d never seen a white one before I sent Pasiano to pick out two plants of his choice and he came home with this one. It never occurs to me to buy white flowers, but like this one.

I’ve never seen a completely white fuchsia. Partially white ones, but never a whole flower. It doesn’t look like the fuchsias we have here. maybe it’s a wild version?

No.. we bought it at a nursery. We’ll see tomorrow if there is red inside…

Just went and checked.. nothing has emerged from the white balls yet.. Still all white.
