| I have 6 hanging fuschia baskets that I started with little starts in the spring and 2 of them are doing really well and 4 of them are NOT. The leaves and blossoms are all tiny and miniature, while the others are full and beautiful. I watered it every day and used Fuschia food. Did I fry it?? Should I pot them in new soil? Prune?? I'm so confused!!!! |

| Hello I just wanted to ask about our Fuchsia bush which has been perfectly healthy for years and flowered recently but now all the flowers have gone? The bush doesnt look unwell? Any ideas as to what is wrong please? Kind Regards Harry. |

| Harry, did you take all the seedpods off, if not all the energy will be going towards making seed. Pinching the ends of the branches will force new growth and more flowers but after pinching it will be at least 6 weeks before you see more flowers. |
