130 - Many garden flowers have been badly battered by the recent heavy rains, but near the front of our house we have a miniature Fuschia bush which is coming into bloom.
For me, Fuschia blooms are a reminder of my favourite holiday haunt - the Isle of Man - where there are numerous areas of Fuschia which have gone wild. One track where I went walking has an arch of Fuscia over it - a beautiful sight.
My Fuschias are much smaller than that, but still act as a nice holiday reminder for me.
Lovely picture - Fuschias are amongst my favourite flowers. I attempt to grow several but none of mine are showing any sign of coming into flower any time soon. I have had a break from 365 after stagering to complete my first 365postings. I have just popped back but i don't intend to post a picture everday - just when I feel I have something i want to share. I do like your album hence deciding to follow you.
Thank you Jane, and thank you for choosing to follow. I like Fuschias as a reminder of the many happy holidays that we have had in the Isle of Man, where they are quite widespread and now grow wild in places. Congratulations on completing your 365 - it must be a hard habit to break after 12 months though!
