Fuschia leaves are yellowing

Posted by deables South West Wash (My Page) on

Hey, Fuschia novice here. I am actually excited by how well my two plants have done this summer. Lots of flowers and new buds/growth. I can see that I am very lucky to not have killed them with overwatering though as I do tend to soak em.

Recently my plants have started loosing leaves from the middle of the plant out. The leaves are turning yellow and dropping off. More and more leaves are being lost each day. Now I see that leaves on the underside of the (hanging) plants are yellowing and some of the new buds are not opening fully.

Up till now the plants have looked great... Could this just be the cooler NW nights and earlier evenings we get just before true fall? Still nice and hot during the day...

Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.

Hi Deables,
Yes they do start to loose their leaves naturally at this time of year, this of course varies according to where you live and your climate, keep them just moist, not soaking wet - Kath:)
