Care Information Grow in fertile, moist but well-drained soil, with shelter from the wind. In containers, use a John Innes No 3 based compost. To plant, firstly water your potted plant well. Dig a hole a little deeper and 3 x wider than the nursery pot. Remove the plant from its pot and tease out some of the roots. Place your plant in the hole at the same level at the pot then refill the hole with the earth removed. Firm in the soil with your heel, avoiding the root ball and water well before adding a mulch around the base of the plant. Water fuchsia plants sufficiently to keep the compost moist but not waterlogged and do not leave plants standing in water Deadhead regularly to encourage more flowers. Feed regularly with a high potash fertiliser. Fuchsias prefer shade for the hottest part of the day.
