Fuchsia Plant Profile and Growing and Care Notes

Fuchsias prefer a cool sheltered position, morning sun is ideal. Fuchsias prefer a humus rich moist soil and remember to prune back after flowering to maintain shape. Fuchsias work well in hanging baskets and pots. Fuchsias come in a huge variety of flower colours and forms are available.Fuchsia are a long flowering garden plant with some cultivars seemingly in perpetual bloom.

Planting Fuchsia


Fuchsias prefer a position in filtered light or at least protection from the hot afternoon sun. A humus rich moist but well drained soil is best and protection from frosts is important. Fuchsias do well in hanging baskets. Like many plants autumn is a great time to plant fuchsias. The soil is still warm and some new root growth before winter will give new plants a boost.

Prepare for planting by digging a hole deeper and wider than the pot, dig in some well rotted compost or cow manure and after planting the new fuchsia backfill the hole and water in well.

Fuchsias in hanging baskets


Fuschsia are often grown in hanging baskets. The baskets are lined with coco fibre. Wire baskets provide good drainage and are often used for planting fuchsias. Fuchsias also do well when planted in pots or containers.



Watering Fuchsias

Remember that fuchsias like to be moist but not wet, having said that we have fuchsias growing in dappled shade that we never water. Moniter the soil if its dry water, do not over water. Fuchsias in hanging baskets and containers will require regular watering.

Fertilizing Fuchsias


Fuchsias are not gross feeders, apply specialist fuchsia fertiliser once a year, or try an application of dynamic lifter in spring once new growth has commenced. Slow release fertilisers are best for hanging baskets.

Pruning Fuchsias


Tip prune as required to maintain shape. Most fuchsias respond well to pruning.
