Bought a Fuchsia "Campo Glaziou" at Strybing

We visited the Strybing plant sale yesterday and had a blast.  I was very impressed with the "Plants for Rock Gardens" section, which included many miniature conifers, as well as the infinite variety of succulents.

To be honest, though, I was a bit disappointed with the trees.  I briefly considered an Oregon Ash, before realizing I had nowhere to put it.  There were a few sequoia sempervirens, deodar cedars, many false cypress, and many plants labeled simply "juniperus sp."  Not very helpful.

I ended up with a fuschia marked "Fuchsia Campo Glaziou."  Beautiful, small pink flowers, fairly upright habit.  I'll post a picture soon.  I think it will go well with my other fuschias.   I've tried to find information about this variety, without success.  Does anybody have any information, or pointers?
