Fuchsia Hanging Baskets
A guide to producing a fuchsia hanging basket
These are best produced from new plants.
Select the size of
basket you require and as a guide :-
10" basket you will need 3 trailing Fuchsia.
12" basket you will need 4 trailing Fuchsia.
14" basket you will need 5 trailing Fuchsia.
Add slow release fertilizer and water retention granules to your basket.
The best baskets are produced using one type of fuchsia.
The fuchsia should be stopped at 3 pairs of leaves prior to planting up the basket.
Plant all the fuchsia at an angle of aprox 45 degrees over the rim of the basket.
Pinch out the side shoots at 3 pairs of leaves and continue untill you have pinched out at least 3 times.
Feed the basket
little and often as this will produce better results than
feeding once a week even if you have added slow release
fertilizer.
