Found this today:

A very good presentation of Fuchsias with photos (and you can click for larger images)

Maybe I shouldn't have looked at the site at this hour but it sure looked to be written in German.  It is presented nicely.

Indeed (the website) it is Scott.
Fortunately, botanical plant names are universal so its a good place to visit.

As our resident Fuchsia expert, please add a few more links to your favourite sites, Scott.
Any Fuchsia style garden photos would be much appreciated.
By trial and error (mostly) I now have a small collection of hardy varieties. In the UK that means they survive our winters. This year has been particularly bad. Hope they survive!

I didn't see a link for reading in English but it does look nice.  Again, I might have missed it but was thee ever a more fine tuned ID of 'Tinker' than Magalinica?
