fuchsia
Bright purplish red
Fuchsia is a vivid purplish-red color, named after the flowering plant whose drooping blossoms display this distinctive hue.
The plant itself, with its teardrop-shaped flowers, is popular in hanging baskets and shaded gardens.
The word is frequently misspelled because the silent *ch* defies expectation: Is it spelled f-u-s-c-h-i-a or f-u-c-h-s-i-a?
