  • New to this garden hobby as well. I was going to ask the same question as Noob, so your answers all help. One other I have upright fuschia in pot will It die back over the winter then bloom again next year.

    The fuchsia-it depends on whether it is a hardy variety or not-if this is its first year-I would take cuttings now as insurance just in case if it doesn't re-appear.

  • Thanks for your reply. I think the fuschia is the hardy variety, but will take cutting anyway. I remember up untill march this year the only hardy in variety i knew of was oliver hardy. Funny how gardening gets to you. I only have a small four tier plastic greenhouse can I put the cutting in there before frost date.

    If you are unsure about cuttings etc-they root fairly easily just in water on a windowsill pot up at the first sign of roots and yes-protect from frost-until then fine in a greenhouse

     

  • Cheers sotongeoff, i will do that this weekend.image
