As I walked along a Sydney street a rainy day, I saw the subject of this week’s picture. It is a native of Central and South America and also lives in the Andes where temperatures are cool, and the air is moist. Fuchsias were named after a 16th century German botanist - Leonard Fuchs. I hope you like it.

I’m not the gardening type mate but the colours and shapes of the flower world are marvellous. Nice picture. Now why don’t I see these things? Too busy refereeing my grandkids I suppose…

Thank you Ozi,

And you are "refereeing" them very well. I can't think of a better legacy for them and their families.

My little grandkids are the main reason why I take photos (of them) and also the main reason I hardly take a photo of anything else these days. Why is it that the older you get, the more gear you accumulate and the less time you have to use it all !?!?!?

How true!
