Title: Fuchsia leaves
Post by: ber77tie on June 25, 2013, 21:28:46
I recently planted a couple of fuchsias in baskets.The new growth looks shrivelled but I can't see any aphid.Any other ideas ? They are not dry and the plant as a whole looks fine.

Most probably in shock as they would have come out of a nice cosy greenhouse and bunged in a draughty old hanging basket. If you have only just purchased them they would be very tender and need hardening up a bit.

Thanks Ace ,I think you could be right as they have just come out the greenhouse and the weather hasn't been great.
