During the time I lived in Oklahoma, the only fuchsia I had was in a tube of lipstick. I had heard about the plants in passing, but since it is not heat tolerant, I had no desire to grow it.

I had blooms, but not the full, lush growth that the farmer's market hanging baskets have. I fed and watered them and decided to try and overwinter them.  Read more >
