Fuchsia speciosa, Hort. (F. hybrida, Hort.). Figs. 1603, 1604. The greater part of present-day garden fuchsias are of the longer-tubed type shown in the illustrations. These are probably hybrid derivatives of F. magellanica forms and F. fulgens. Amongst the named sorts every gradation will be found, from the short-tubed Storm King to the Earl of Beaconsfield with fls. 3 in. long. The old F. exoniensis, Paxt., B.M. 153, is figured as a very showy plant, marked by very long-pointed calyx-lobes and sharp-pointed buds, said to be a hybrid of F. cordifolia (a Mexican species) and F. globosa. The plant subsequently figured and cult, under that name does not agree, having shorter fls. and much less prominently pointed calyx-lobes. CH
