Fuschia Bush

| Got a nice Fuschia bush but it's in a pretty shady part of the garden and I would like to move it. I pruned it well back last year and it is not showing any signs of new shoots. Would it be too late to dig it up and move it??

| Go ahead. Fuschias don't mind being disturbed. We are just about the same latitude, so fuschias actually are happy in full sun or part shade. |

With all the cold and dull winter we've had Stuvspec, you're not alone, they won't shoot from under the soil until the soil warms up a bit more. Try to dig it up in a clump, with as little root disturbance as possible. Any long old tap roots can be removed, leaving as many of the finer white roots as possible. Plant in the new position a bit deeper than it is now and keep soil moist if we don't have any rain - Kath :) |
