The fuchsia plant dates back to the 17th century and was named after the botanist Leonard Fuchs.  The fuchsia comes in many colours and varieties but Fuchsia Magellanica – the Manx name is Jeirnyn Yee (God’s Tears) -  grows profusely throughout the Isle of Man.

The painting is by local artist Nancy Corkish.  She works predominantly in watercolour and exhibits extensively.  She has designed a variety of cards and decorative china for Manx National Heritage over the years.
