Description
 
Odd Fuchsia hybrid which we got as cuttings from an old Heronswood employee.  Actually she's not very old but we were referring to the original Heronswood.  It appears to be a procumbens x excorticata cross with small reddish leaves on a low mounding plant.  The narrow flowers are a metallic red and while not especially showy, gets credit for being structurally interesting.  The foliage alone makes this very worthy of growing.  This came with the name of 'Ruby Wedding' but that seems to be already in use with another Fuchsia cultivar so who knows.  Probably someone in New Zealand.
