What is this plant, please?

It has tiny flowers which look a bit like fuschia. It flowers for most of the year. Has tiny black round berries. Bees adore it.
I need to prune it but without knowing what it is I don't know when or how much!

It is a fuschia, unless it's in the way, it's pruned in spring when the leaves sprout.

Thank you. Do you know what type it is? I've never seen it again in any of our local garden centres.

Mine looks like this and has the berries at the moment, think it's just a bulk standard fuchsia. It didn't have the berries last year.

Yes it's a very old standard variety, they can often be found in the established gardens of Victorian houses and sometimes around Victorian cemeteries.
I have one near a gate and I'm forever giving it a trim which seems to like and grows even bigger! They're very hardy.

That's interesting, JT05, I think I got it in our local little independent garden centre and then it changed hands. Never seen one anywhere else - I love it because it's colour in the garden for so much of the year and the bees love it so much.
It has got a little unwieldy, so I will give it a trim in the spring. Thank you.

My Fuschias have just produced berries for the very first time . Never seen that before.

Fuchsia x bacillaris. They're so lovely.
