Fuschia Species

When a neighbor moved she allowed her friends in Sonoma master gardeners to dig what plants they wanted. One that I got is a species Fuchsia that she told me came from a cutting she took from a plant growing at the local landfill. These fuchsias are reported to be resistant to the mite that have damaged so many of the garden fuchsias. I have had it for about a year.  It has been blooming for months but I have no clue to its name.  I found the Swedish Fuchsia Society web site which I think will be able to identify it. This site provides pictures of native Fuchsia species from around the world.
