  Fuchsia
The genus indication Fuchsia is not mentioned in the cases of fuchsia hybrids and cultivars.
Fuchsia leaves that are exhibitied in nature to a lot of sunshine have acquired a natural protection in the form of reddish pigments such as anthocyanine that diminishes the harmful influence of ultraviolet radiation.
Therefore, in the spring, fuchsias have to adapt gradually to the increasing sunlight intensity.

  Fuchsia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fuchsia is a genus of flowering plants, mostly shrubs, which were identified by Charles Plumier in the late 17th century, and named by Linnaeus in 1753 after the German botanist Leonhart Fuchs (1501-1566).
Fuchsia leaves are opposite or in whorls of 3-5, simple lanceolate and usually have serrated margins (entire in some species), 1-25 cm long, and can be either deciduous or evergreen depending on the species.
Fuchsias are popular garden shrubs, though only the hardiest species like Fuchsia magellanica can be grown outdoors in areas like the British Isles (where it has also become naturalised in Ireland and southwestern Britain), with many of the popular cultivars being greenhouse plants there.
