We visited an Oregon Fuchsia Society show in Portland, OR in August, 1998 and this was one of the books they recommended. It is beautiful ... full of exceptional photos ... a visual delight! It also covers just about any subject a beginner might be interested in: history, nomenclature, cultivation, propagation (including hybridization techniques), training & exhibiting, pests and diseases and recommended plants and cultivars. It is full of fascinating facts and information. Best of all, however, are the wonderful photographs that identify many, many varieties. It is written by a British author, so a few words and expressions may seem unusual to American readers. Nevertheless, it's a wonderful book!

This book is a good one for most people who are raising Fuchsias. It could have a tiny bit more information on care, but the pictures are lovely and it
gives a good general purpose background on fuchsia raising. I do reccomend the book.

This is a great book for anyone who loves fuchsias. The photos are absolutely stunning and the writer obviously has a lot of knowledge and experience. Well worth a place on the book case.

The author is an accomplished grower, look for his other books. Lots of good info, pictures.
