Fuchsiana. Presented with fine shoes

When the fuchsias fly in! San Juan Capistrano has its swallows that herald the arrival of spring. Around here it’s Fuchsia Saturday at Fred Meyer. and “American Fuchsias” in the right. The fuchsias depicted are red & white singles but it’s unclear if “American Fuchsias” might refer to those. Or if to anything at all. There is a small hole through the card , visible as a white spot in the image. It looks like it might once have been glued to a lid and the card was damaged when it was pulled away. Judging from the art and lettering, the card probably dates to the 1880-1890s.
