Fuchsias by the back door (Fuchsia magellanica (Hardy fuchsia))

My Fuchsias have on the whole not enjoyed this summer, but at least Hawkshead and David are starting to look good now.

I'm pleased to see these putting on a good show for you.
I've had mixed results with mine - some doing very poorly , but others extremely well.

I like the simple ones HB - not a fan of the blousy ones at all I'm afraid.

Hywel - they took their time!
The best ones by far for me this year has been the triphylla group.

Really ? I've only got one of those now, and it hasn't even got a singe bud on it :(

Sue had the same problem Hywel. My advice was more sun, less water which seems to have worked.
