Having sorted out Sachas mystery Buddleija can anyone help with a name
for my mystery one

My other request is for a name for this Fuchsia, it came from a
Fuchsia tree I saw being felled in Swansea several years ago, it had a
trunk of well over 6 inches and was around 10 ft tall and the same
wide.
Tough, good grower and very floriferous.

Thanks in advance

F. excorticata? I believe that's the largest Fuchsia in the world. *
Does it have peeling bark and blue pollen? *It's not reliably hardy in
UK but does ome through the winter in warmer locations. *It's aka the
Fuchsia tree.

Following up on the idea of Buddleija *curviflora. *I found this name
Buddleja japonica just with 2 links, the pics match.
Just remembered that the RHS hade a small trial of Buddleija at
Wisley, and I hope to go back there early Sept. I was there the other
day, I called in after taking the wife to Gatwick Airport

Re the fuchsia, ther seems to be so much confusion betweem F.
Magalenica and F. Riccartonii' when you look in Google images, you
find both totaly mixed.
These 3 are confusing
The first ishttp://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff82/taffy4u2/Budleija/Riccartonii...

The second was bought years ago as Riccartonii Alba, But I doubt it

The 3rd is the one I am trying to name

A group of them together

Its not F. excorticata Sacha, I had that a few years ago and lost it
in a mild winter, the flowers were not the same.

Its not buddleja japonica which I also have as that has drooping panicles
and a more lilac colour

The picture was taken with sun on it, I will post another taken
shaded, the panicles were lax on the plant I got my cutting from.
I havn't tried it for scent,
I'll check.
