Yes Nik, I think it is indeed a Cape Fuchsia which actually has nothing to do with a fuchsia, proper name is Phygelius - Kath:)

Thanks so much for the quick reply, Kath! I will start researching Phygelius, and see what I can find.

Thanks again,
Nik

Nik, it is neither Fuchsia or Phygelius but Odontonema strictum or Firespike. A zone 9/11 tropical perennial. Will grow well as an annual, loves heat and humidity, but should be brought indoor for the winter.

Gerro, thank you so much!! I researched the name, came up with some pics, and that's it exactly! (Of course, you already knew that LOL) Thank you for the care info also, without your response, I may have left it outside over winter and lost it.

Thanks again,
Nik

Thanks for the info Gerro - Kath:)
