God's teardrop

Also known as Lady’s Eardrops, the fuchsia family contains more than 100 species. It’s named after Leonhart Fuchs. This 16th-century German herbalist was also a doctor and a botanical illustrator.
In western Ireland, it’s called ‘deora De’, which translates as God’s Teardrops. It’s an incredibly prolific flower throughout Ireland.
