Yeah, the explanatory last line - but these guys shouldn't need it. :-X

Yeah, I can find the last line by using Google...

Well, that explains why fucschia is misspelled.

It is spelled correctly, isn't it?

The correct spelling is fuchsia, I think, which could work as well.

I thought it was fuschia (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=fuschia). But I guess the plant, and not the colour is intended, so it should be fuchsia (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=fuchsia)
fucschia (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=fucschia) in any case does not appear to be a word.

The trouble with fuchsia, is that it would be broken up differently, fuch-sia, most likely.
