FUCHSIAS
« on: March 25, 2012, 21:48:38 »
I saved lots of last years fuchsias in my unheated greenhouse. I kept them gently going, watering very sparingly. Now they are all coming back into life again ...when can I put them outside please anyone ?  Debs

I would leave them til after last frost.  Well, if they are the tender trailing varietys.   ;)
Take time to stop and smell the flowers.

Definitely not until all risk of frost gone unless you're certain they are hardy.

 Do not put the plants out untill at least the 1st week in May. Water spareingly now it is turning very cold again. ;D ;D
