Getting back to the point of the post!


And DO remember that waterlogging kills mas many plants as frost;
even if not always the same ones!

If fuchsias are prepared for winter, now, chances are they will quite
happily go semi dormant, and need no futher care, ....until
January/Febuary, just as it gets to the coldest point of the year(said
I believe to be on average, second week of febuary) and a trip to the
greenhouse is not something to look forward too, but by then the pots
have started to dry out, compost is dust dry, and thats when more
fuschsias will die, through neglect!
