Ordered some, too.  A bit strange, as I decided to order some other plants/seeds too as the "free" offer covered to cost of the p&p.  When I went to the check out, an additional £3.95 was added to the bill.  So deleted chargeable items and just went with the free offer.

Just wanted to comment about giant fuschias.  I had a few and at the beginning I thought how wonderful they were but have now gone off them as they drop off the plant due to their weight. Does anyone agree?

A pal who is a member of the fuschia society told me that the basket that won every year was always one containing the beautiful small fuschias.

  I Show Fuchsia's and can concur with Floraldi that at the shows it's mainly the singles that win in the basket classes. They tend to have tighter foliage
and a profusion of blooms, where as the big doubles have a more loser foliage and tend not to carry that many blooms.
  And please I'm not trying to put you off buying them, as looking at what they are offering, it's a good little collection.
