When should I prune fuschias?

Answer by  PhoneDood (98)

In general I'd say plants are difficult for most novices to handle. You should either consult a skilled botanist, or at the very least pick up a "Plants for Dummies" book. There are a lot of different plant types to identify. Most plants are unique in their characteristics, and there's no easy answer here.

Always wait to prune your fuschias after the worry of frost and passed and temperatures warm to at least 55 degrees each day. Water your plant after pruning and then fertilize.
