I will shamefully admit, I have no idea what this plant is! I took this photo at the Northwest Flower and Garden Show in February in Seattle. But I didn’t write down a name. Falaroy distracted me. So I’ll keep searching and please keep guessing!
***Update*** The ‘Real Botanist’ award goes to Cathy at Words and Herbs for identifying this as Australia’s native fuchsia, or Correa. When I saw that name it rang a bell….I probably read the sign at the garden show. And the flower is spot on for the pictures Cathy found. Thank you Cathy! Now see if you can solve my Plant Pursuit Game, it’s one of the pages at the top of my blog!

A type of fuchsia? The tubular flower reminds me of a fuchsia I’ve seen in an English garden. I wonder if it would survive my climate, as it’s lovely. Is it evergreen? Love this image with Falaroy! 🙂
I don’t think it’s fuchsia….
Have a look at this link, and let me know if it could be a correa. (I can’t resist a challenge!)

Best,

Thank you! I really like sunshine, I just might have to accept!
I do not know plants well enough to make an educated guess beyond positing that whatever the name is, it ought to have “bell” in it; I would name it a rose-bell. I like the photo! Very enchanting. 🙂
I like your idea, if we don’t know, we just continue on with our own names! Beauty bell, bitty bell, breezy bell….
