Fuchsia boliviana
Impatiens omeiana..really very nice. Not sure if its evergreen here or if this spring growth.
Begonia pinnatifida.

That Impatiens looks so lush... wish mine in the UK would look that good! Also - those Fuchsia boliviana flowers absolutely glow in real life. Just saw them a few weeks ago and they're like a homing beacon.

Re: Fuchsia boliviana,Impatiens omeiana,Begonia pinnatifida
My Impatiens is also quite feeble in comparison. I have potted up a bit to take to my new garden but if it fails to get lusher it will be out. Fuchsia boliviana is indeed a lovely fuchsia. I have a real soft spot for the species fuchsias and I think this fuchsia is much hardier than people may think. I have had mine in a pot, unprotected and sometimes frozen, for years. Last year I cut it back to reinvigorate it and it is looking great already. The flowers are like dangling jewels but then again so are those of most fuchsias. Pity they are so common because if they were rare they would be considered very exotic. I also have a Fuchsia arborescens planted outside. It usually gets to be about 6ft tall by the end of the season and if there are no frosts it has to be one of the mosts stunning shrubs with its big panicles of pretty flowers and bunches of fruit.
