How do I care for a fuchsia hanging basket?

Answer by  loribugher (462)

Fuchsia plants are delicate creatures. They are really sensitive to too much or too little light, and too much or too little water. So just be careful with them, and watch them closely. They prefer full sun, but you have to be diligent about not letting them dry out. Make sure to feed them often, especially during the summer.

Fuchsia likes a lot of light and water, keep it in diffuse sunlight and damp in Northern conditions -- don't freeze.

These are very easy to handle. Pick off the dead flowers and leaves. Water every other day but do not soak. If it is outside water a little everyday of you live in hot climate.

Ensure they get enough sunlight. Turn every few days. Place water in the tray. That allows the fuchsia to draw the water up through it's roots and prevents fungus.

A fuchsia hanging basket will definitely attract a lot of attention. Make sure you maintain the bright color (you may have to re-paint or re-dye it).
