Euro-Fuchsia In 1984, some European fuchsia societies joined together under the name of Euro-Fuchsia. The association developed into a platform for information exchange and co-operation for European fuchsia societies and institutes. The purpose of Euro-Fuchsia is for • closer co-operation between the European fuchsia societies and • the promotion of fuchsia cultivation and education. At its last meeting in September 2011 in Bonn, Germany, the delegations decided to modernize Euro-Fuchsia and adept it to modern communication and requirements. The main aims of the new constitution are • to open Euro-Fuchsia also for smaller groups, internet groups and interested individuals • to concentrate the effords of fuchsia research • to use the internet as a platform for information exchange between the members instead of print media Today Euro-Fuchsia is open for all societies, groups and individuals from Europe and elsewhere interested in fuchsias. It is the platform for information exchange and the co-ordination of fuchsia research and promotion. It supports also those fuchsia friends and collectors which are interested in the conservation of fuchsias. © Euro-Fuchsia (2011)
