Fuchsia 'Alice Hoffman'


Fuchsia 'Alice Hoffman' (Fuchsia)

A present- I don't think it's reliably hardy, so I'll take it in for the winter.

This even survived in my garden last winter, Spritz. Quite a sheltered spot but you know how I go on - and on- and on about my cold garden.

I'm going by my RHS book, Wagger...it says 'borderline' in there. I suppose I'm thinking of last winter, which we all hope was a one-off!

Certainly do - if it's like that again I'm going to see Bernieh - haven't told her yet!

I think I have this one Spritz, will a cold greenhouse do or do you recommend bringing it into the house?

I'm not good at fuchsias - Hywel's your man! He wrote a blog on over-wintering fuchsias....I'm sure you could track it down, Ian!
