fook-see-a

another delight from gammy’s garden. what to say about fuchsia? well, let’s see: the proper pronunciation is techincally pronounced “fook-see-a”, however, even botanists pronounce it as “fyu-sha”. so there’s that. oh, and also, look at that little pac-man flower in the lower right, the way those stamen are climbing to escape. it makes me smile–life in all it’s enthusiastic exuberance. summer.
