It was still in the small pot I bought it in until I repotted it a few weeks ago and now it has several flowers.

Eli , the flowers are beautiful! I particularity like Fuchsia 'Genii' but the few times I've tried to grow it on the balcony it never lasts long. I'd love it to grow like F. 'Garden News' which roots very, very easily & is a very strong grower. I have so many plants of it that I had to give my son one a few weeks ago & it's growing very well in his garden!

The standard 'F.'Garden News' was growing so well & I was happy with it but, after one branch was torn off when some clothing on a drying frame snagged it, I was a little upset! A week or two ago another branch broke off - now there are only 2 branches left - both growing towards opposite sides! Now I have a "horizontal" standard Fuchsia!
