It has bushy growth but the stems are arching so it is suitable for a basket . I grow mine in pots. It is not hardy. You would be best keeping it in a cold but frost free place for the winter. It might survive outside in a sheltered spot as long as the soil does not freeze. I keep mine in a shed and I cover them with bubble wrap and newspaper..

I have /had 2 lovely shrubby ones, but i forgot to bring them in before the snow. hope they can re sprout from the bottom. I cant see why it is lassed as trailing as Hywell correctly says it is more arching.

Thank you guys - you've been really helpful!

Chase, have a look and see if there may be a fuchsia society in your area? Don't be scared by the name, I know next to nothing about the details of caring for fuchsias, but joined a group here anyway because everyone is so friendly and of course they are very knowledgeable.
