Watering

Even mild soil moisture, reduce watering amount on cold winter days

Fertilizing

Diluted fuchsia hanging flower feed biweekly spring and summer seasons

Pruning

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.

Propagation

Propagate by softwood or semi-hardwood cuttings

Growing

Can be grown outdoors in moist, fertile soil. Plant the base of the stems 5cm below the soil surface and provide a deep winter mulch and shelter from cold, drying winds. See hardy fuchsia cultivation
