Fuschia

I have a fuschia in a pot, the one with tiny flowers which is more like a shrub. Have left it out over the winter and it’s still alive. Do I need to prune, it as it looks rather straggly?

    Something like one of these?

    You can cut them hard back ... I'd repot in JI No 3 loambased compost at the same time.  It'd probably be happier in the ground if you have a spot for it.
