I really disturbed this old fuschia in spring, dragged it out of the pot, found quite a few vine weevils. All new soil, water retention crystals. Told it that it was now a 'standard' on 2 sticks. Its blooming so well. I can hardly believe all that disturbance. Including keep pinching out the tips constantly, has brought on a wonderful display.

Fantastic display, Dorjac - all that attention has certainly paid off.

This fuschia was on it's last legs and I thought its so lovely, give it one last chance and try and get it back to the standard fuchsia it once was, until snapped off in a gale. so I left two legs and discouraged any other growths. Seems to have worked.
