FUCHSIA VIDEOS FOR SALE

NEW---- We have nearly completed the DVD which features a top grower - Jim Gordon and his style of growing - we (Border Fuchsia Group) have been allowed to film him at every major stage of his growing the fuchsias (from preparing his growing conditions, cuttings taken to the final stage of the showbench.  People have constantly asked us "Is he giving all of his knowledge" - yes he is, and is leaving nothing out of the video.  With following his style of growing, (4 hours to date are now onto DVD's,) close-ups are included where needed and specific dates are shown when we attended to record him.

The dvds will be sold as a set (the total length will be approx. 5 hours long) after the Scottish Show and after our Border Area Members have bought their copies.

All of our video dvds are in widescreen format (16.9), as near as we can make them 1 hour long and uncompressed, therefore there is no loss of quality of the picture over what we record.  This does not mean that the quality is low, try them yourself and see.

All prices shown are for mainland Britain only - if you live in another area of planet Earth, contact us at sales@wdfs.org.uk and we will reply as soon as possible.

2.   A video is planned on hybridising fuchsias by one of our top hybridisers, this will take a bit of time as we want to get it correct and we will produce the video as soon as possible.
3.   Triphyllas - one of our most spectacular fuchsia, we have this in our sight to produce a video which wil,l show how to grow large fuchsias.
4.    Bonsai Fuchsias - We have arranged with a member to video the growing (from start to show) of a bonsai plant.
