| >>The leaves on my fuchsia look healthy and happy but the blooms have dwindled down to practically nothing in the last few weeks. What could be the cause? Lots of causes possible. Has its environment changed lately? Did it have a heavy wave of blooms? If so it might be "tired" and need a rest. >> I had to repot it recently. Could that be a problem? Maybe, if it is concentrating on growing new roots, but Fuchsias transplant easily in general. If that's the issue it will recover quickly. >> I also added composted manure when I did the re-potting. Fuchsias are heavy feeders, and composted manure is unlikely to be particularly nitrogen-rich. Fuchsias are not one of those plants that bloom better starved; on the contrary because they bloom on new growth they bloom better when well-fed. They often bloom a few weeks after a feeding. Just don't give it so much fertilizer as to burn it. >> Also, my fucsia had HUGE blooms on it when I bought it a month ago but it started getting much smaller blooms once I brought it home. Any idea why that would happen? Did you give it any food other than the composted manure (which I think is probably NOT rich enough for it alone)? |
