The American Fuchsia Society Registration Service was established in 1954 to work toward eliminating duplicate cultivar names. The International Society for
Horticultural Science appointed the American Fuchsia Society the
The Society encourages all fuchsia hybridizers to register their
cultivars. At the same time we strongly urge that all new cultivars be
thoroughly tested and evaluated before they are named and registered.
Each new fuchsia that is offered to the public should be distinctly
better or different from existing varieties.

All registration forms, other than the European, should be requested
from and returned to Ed Salome. All Registration forms for Europe
should be requested from and returned to Leon Pauwels. Mr. Pauwels will
review all forms to determine that they are filled out correctly and
completely. Once this is done he will send them to Ed Salome, who will
issue the certificates and enter the data into the computer. This
should speed up the process and eliminate the delays caused by mailing
the forms to the states.
