This is actually from the figwort family but has the name fuchsia as it bears a resemblance to the fuchsia we know although they are not closely related. This was taken at the Chicago Botanic Garden
This wonderful Cherry Ripe Cape Fuchsia has to me some resemblance with one of the species of a Phygelius (in particular the Phygelius capensis species), Kathy. Thanks for another very fine addition to your huge collection of flower images.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
