                          Hi @Upsydaisy , I love your Pear blossom .

                          Why hasn't your Fuchsia got any leaves ? Has it been pruned it looks a bit gangly , the branches should have been pruned back to around 3 nodes from the head on each stem. It should really only just be coming into leaf now.

                              Hi Woo, you're bottom picture isn't an Aubrieta. It could be a Saxifrage, can't really tell without seeing the leaves.
