Watering

Keep compost evenly moist, never bone dry

Fertilizing

Liquid feed regularly through active flowering season

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

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. See hardy fuchsia cultivation for further information
