TREASURE ISLAND—Single corolla orchid pink or li- 
lac rose, lightly veined lilac. Long, reflexed sepals light 
rose pink. First of the pastel colored fuchsias. Flowers 
in greatest profusion. Lovely hanging pot fuchsia or for 
a trellis (espalier). In the garden requires staking. 
VENUS VICTRIX—Single corolla deep violet blue, sepals 
white, tinted pink. Long stamens and pistil. Beautiful 
small flowers and small foliage. Often rather slow. 
VERA SERGINE—Semi-double corolla white; sepals 
white, flushed light rose inside. Long, reflexed sepals 
almost pure white in shady place. Large flower. Needs 
extra attention to fertilizing for strong growth and bloom. 
WHITE BEAUTY-—Single corolla of four wide spread 
petals of white, veined red near base, scarlet sepals re- 
flexed. Very free flowering. Medium in growth. At- 
tractive in bloom. 
WHITE WONDER (syn. Catalina)—Double corolla white; 
broad sepals bright red. Very large flowers on tall, up- 
right plant. A sport of Gypsy Queen and in every re- 
spect as good. Considered by many the best red and 
white fuchsia. 
WISTARIA — Corolla bluish mauve, flesh pink near 
base of petals and composed of small petals, each one on 
a long stalk. Medium long tube waxy white; large 
broad sepals white, flushed blush outside, inside of crepe- 
like texture and flushed pink. Sepals tipped light green. 
An established plant has long, pendulous branches and is 
fine as a pillar or trellis plant. Good for hanging pots. 
The most talked about 1941 fuchsia. 35c. 
YERBA BUENA-—Single corolla shading from rose to 
deep tyrian rose. Upturned sepals are pale carmine. 
Petals are peculiarly “convoluted and toothed,” as de- 
scribed by the introducer. 
OTHER VARIETIES—We grow well over 200 varieties 
of the better fuchsias (there are about 2000 varieties in 
the world) and may be able to supply you with what you 
want, other than those listed in this catalogue. Please let 
us have your list or, better still, visit our nursery during 
the blooming season of our fuchsia garden and lathhouse. 
WE FEATURE TRAILING FUCHSIAS 
The great popularity of fuchsias for hanging pots, hang- 
ing baskets, window boxes, etc., is well deserved. In a 
shaded location few plants give more color over a long 
period of bloom than fuchsias. Try a few this season. Our 
selection of varieites is second to none. 
We prefer to call them hanging pot fuchsias in place of 
hanging basket fuchsias because they are kept in good con- 
dition easier in a hanging pot, preferably a glazed one, 
than a wire basket. Thick wooden hanging boxes, specially 
if constructed of redwood, are very serviceable. 
Please note that we have two listings of hanging pot fu- 
chsias. The list below described the varieties generally used 
and accepted as standard hanging pot varieties. The next 
listing, under the heading, “Other Fuchsias Useful for 
Hanging Pots” describes briefly the varieties we have suc- 
cessfully grown and exhibited. It may be mentioned here 
that we have even see fuchsias such as Brilliant, California, 
Mrs. Desmond, Mrs. W. H. Ware, Thomasina and Sunset 
growing in hanging pots. These and others may be used, but 
under average garden and cultural conditions their habit 
of growth and bloom does not permit maximum display as 
hanging pot plants.
