Fuchsia magellanica Var. gracilis, Bailey (F. gracilis, Lindl. F. decussata, Grab., not Ruiz & Pav. F. macrostemma Var. gracilis, Nich.). Fig. 1602. Very slender and graceful, twiggy and cross-branched: lvs. lanceolate to ovate, toothed; petiole ½ in. long: fls. drooping on very long pedicels which are single or in pairs; tube slender, nearly as long as the narrow spreading lobes; calyx scarlet; petals purple, retuse, shorter than the long acute calyx-lobes. Chile. B.R. 847; 1052 (Var. multiflora). B.M. 2507. Gn. 55, p. 74. Mn. 2, p. 186. — Perhaps a distinct species. A Var. variegata is advertised. F. thompsonii, Hort., is said to belong here. With the F. magellanica set may be classed F. corallina, Hort., F. elegans, Paxt., F. tenella, Hort., and others. There are apparently many hybrids. The short-flowered fuchsias are less popular than formerly, but many varieties are now in cult. CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
