    Good day group.

    I thought these might be bleeding hearts, but they are definately not.
    What are they?

    Thanks,

    Waz

    Fuchsia magellanica. Native to southernmost South America; the hardiest species of Fuchsia.

    There are many similar fuchsias, I am not convinced it is clear this one is a Magellan fuchsia specifically.

    Fuchsias it is!

    Yes, it would be hard to be more specific as I have found during a 10 minute Google session.

    Many thanks,

    I hope the people who do the ID'ing get as much out of it as those who have their questions answered.
