How is Fuchsia pronounced? Is it like "f*ck+sia"? Or more like "fushia"?

Edit: looking up in dictionay, it's actually /fjuːʃə/.

It's a real English word. You can look it up in a dictionary.

The color is named after the genus of plants which is in turn named after the German botanist Leonhart Fuchs.
