Fertilizing

Fuchsia specialty bloom feed every two to four weeks growth phase

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

Ideal for growing under glass or in containers that can be brought indoors to overwinter. Grow in moist but well-drained potting compost, in bright filtered light with good ventilation. When in growth apply a liquid balanced fertiliser monthly. Keep just moist over winter. See tender fuchsia cultivation for more detailed advice
