Help, I really don't know what to do.  My fuschia grew to enormous proportions this spring and now the middle has developed a hole and the leaves are yellowing.

 

any advice please?

    Give it a regular feed once a week, I use Miracle grow, and regular watering. Cut it down in spring to stop it becoming to top heavy.

    I would guess its outgrown its pot, it looks quite compact and overgrown.

    perhaps you could prune it down in autumn then chop it in half and repot into two.

    For now feed and water as others have said make sure the pot is sitting on pebbles or stones so it can drain and maybe prune any dead stems this will lighten the plant and allow air to get to it.
