Should I transplant my Fuscia

| I planted my new Fuschia plant that I bought from the nursery 3 weeks ago in the center of a flower bed. The container had a label saying to plant it in full sun. It is not doing well. It has slightly yellow leaves. So, i read about them and came to the conclusion that the label was wrong and I made a mistake putting it in the bright sun. Should I move it to a spot with partial sun?? Or, should I give it a couple of weeks and see how it goes? Thanks for your help. |

| As far as I know Fuchsias can handle filtered sun at the most. They are very sensitive and would probably fry in full sun. I would move them to a partly sunny place with some light morning sun, no afternoon, and good drainage. Hope this helps. Good luck! |

| OUT of the sun quick!!! Although this post is a little old it may be too late. I have never known fuchsia to do well in full sun, even part sun is harsh. Mine all do well with early morning sun if it is cool and then shade after that. Good luck, Fuchsias are beautiful plants! |

| Bear in mind that mine are at their best from late August to first frost in a leafy, gloomy British garden. That tells you what conditions they like. Cool, damp and definitely not very sunny! |
