There is a popular myth that
fuchsias owe their introduction
into Europe to a garden-minded
sailor who brought back a plant
from a South American voyage
and presented it to his mother
in London. However, there are
records to show, as indicated in
a publication of the California
Fuchsia Society called A to Z
on Fuchsias, that a fuchsia from
Chile was given to Kew Gardens
by a sea captain in 1788. The
"sailor's myth" is believed to
have been concocted to cover the
fact that a plant was somehow
smuggled out of Kew and into the
channels of commercial trade.
First records of fuchsias date
back to 1703 when Father P. Car
los Plumier, a French missionary
and botanist who had hunted for
the chmehona or quinine tree in
Santo Domingo, published the
description of a fuchsia he found
there. The name fuchsia was ap
plied to the new plant in honor
of Leonhart Fuchs, a German
botanist who was born in 1501.
It is not known who brought
the first fuchsias to the United
States, or when. Thev were in
troduced prior to 1854 because
in that year in San Francisco a
woman exhibited 12 varieties of
fuchsias at a flower show.
The possibilties o hybridizing
were recognized as early as 1825
This creating of new varieties
has been going on ever since, and
in the 150 years since discovery
of this group, an estimated 2,000
named varieties are the result
of intensive crossing and re-cross
ing. A few of the old varieties
still available are: The President,
1841; Prince of Orange, 1872
Rose of Denmark, 1865; Storm
King, I860; Rose of Castile, 18B9;
California, 1843; and Venus Vic
trix, 1842, the plant from which
many fuchsia innovations have
been derived. It was the first
white-tubed variety. The new
varieties that come out each year
show their ancestry in many
ways; petal and sepal form and
color, size ?tnA growth-habit of
the plant, and shape, size and
color of the leaves.

Keep Well With
Chiropractic
When the normal supply of
nerve energy is reduced
through spinal displacements,
trouble develops. The affected
organ prays for relief. The
seat of trouble is remote from
the affected part. The chiro
practor is schooled in anatomy
and diagnosis. Through ad
justments, he reopens the
nerve channels and permits
the distressed, organ to func
tion nofftially. Consult your
chiropractor today.
