fuchsia 'Border Queen' · Fuchsia 'Border Queen'
Grow in moist, fertile soil in sun or light shade in a sheltered position. Plant the base of the stem 5cm below the soil surface. In cold areas, provide a deep winter mulch and shelter from cold drying winds. May be taller and semi-evergreen in areas with mild winters. See hardy fuchsia cultivation for further information
Shorten last year's flowering stems to one or two buds from the older woody framework. Remove thin, weak and dead shoots. Prune in early to mid-spring as growth resumes; avoid winter pruning that exposes new shoots to frost.
