Fuchsia × Bacillaris
''Fuchsia'' × ''bacillaris'' is a natural hybrid between '' F. microphylla'' subsp. ''microphylla'' and '' F. thymifolia'' subsp. ''thymifolia''. It was originally described by John Lindley in 1832. It is native to Mexico, including the states of Mexico, Oaxaca, and Puebla Puebla ( en, colony, settlement), officially Free and Sovereign State of Puebla ( es, Estado Libre y Soberano de Puebla), is one of the 32 states which comprise the Federal Entities of Mexico. It is divided into 217 municipalities and its cap .... References Flora of Oaxaca Flora of Puebla Flora of the State of Mexico bacillaris Plants described in 1832 Hybrid plants {{Myrtales-stub ...

Lindl
John Lindley FRS (5 February 1799 – 1 November 1865) was an English botanist, gardener and orchidologist. Early years Born in Catton, near Norwich, England, John Lindley was one of four children of George and Mary Lindley. George Lindley was a nurseryman and pomologist and ran a commercial nursery garden. Although he had great horticultural knowledge, the undertaking was not profitable and George lived in a state of indebtedness. As a boy he would assist in the garden and also collected wild flowers he found growing in the Norfolk countryside. Lindley was educated at Norwich School. He would have liked to go to university or to buy a commission in the army but the family could not afford either. He became Belgian agent for a London seed merchant in 1815. At this time Lindley became acquainted with the botanist William Jackson Hooker who allowed him to use his botanical library and who introduced him to Sir Joseph Banks who offered him employment as an assistant in his herba ...

Hybrid (biology)
In biology, a hybrid is the offspring resulting from combining the qualities of two organisms of different breeds, varieties, species or genera through sexual reproduction. Hybrids are not always intermediates between their parents (such as in blending inheritance), but can show hybrid vigor, sometimes growing larger or taller than either parent. The concept of a hybrid is interpreted differently in animal and plant breeding, where there is interest in the individual parentage. In genetics, attention is focused on the numbers of chromosomes. In taxonomy, a key question is how closely related the parent species are. Species are reproductively isolated by strong barriers to hybridisation, which include genetic and morphological differences, differing times of fertility, mating behaviors and cues, and physiological rejection of sperm cells or the developing embryo. Some act before fertilization and others after it. Similar barriers exist in plants, with differences in flowering tim ...

Fuchsia Microphylla
''Fuchsia microphylla'', also known as small leaf fuchsia and small-leaved fuchsia, is a flowering shrub in the family Onagraceae. The specific epithet (''microphylla'') was named for the plant's small (''micro'') leaves (''phylla''). Distribution ''Fuchsia microphylla'' is native to southern Mexico south to Panama.

The leaves are ovate, 1-5 cm long with an entire edge. The flowers are pinkish white and the fruits are a purple grape-shaped berry. Chromosome number is 2n = 22. Distribution Plants are found in Sinaloa and Durango states of Mexico south towards Chiapas and into northern Guatemala. It inhabits a temperate climate in grassland and forest with oak, pine and Abies mixed pine-oak forests at elevations of 1800 to 3900 meters. Subspecies There are two recognized subspecies: Medicinal Use In Mexico its medicinal use includes the treatment of thrush, sores in the mouth (thrush) and scurvy, and in the State of Hidalgo it is used for diarrhea. As a remedy, it is advisable to grind or chew the fruit and the leaf to apply it locally, or take the decoction of the aerial part. Another use that is given is in cases of cough. Referen ...
