Fuchsia anyone?

What you should now about Fuchsias.

"Fuchsia (pronounced /ˈfjuːʃə/ FEW-shə) is a kind of flowering plants, it can grow long shoots," which make the plant difficult to photograph. I was literally on the floor on my stomach to get this shot. "These were identified by Charles Plumier in the late-17th century, and named by Plumier in 1703 after the German botanist Leonhart Fuchs (1501–1566).^[1] The English name fuchsias is frequently misspelled "fuschias"."

Hanging on...

In this case, I did travel farther. Up in Yosemite Valley, near Nevada Falls. Hiking back to camp I encountered this rare beauty. Hanging on from the granite, its colors overpowering the rough surface upon which it grows.

Sometimes we travel far to witness marvelous things, often though, those wonders are right in our own back yard.
