Thanks,

I think I am going to lift it and keep it in the greenhouse just in case,
it's too gorgeous to lose!

Many trailing fuchsias are tender or border-line hardy. If yours is one
of
these it will not thrive outside unless you're in a very mild area.
If it's a hardy form then it will probably survive, but may need a lot a
cleaning up in the spring - even many hardy forms drop their leaves and
look
sad over winter.
My only other concern would be damage/soiling of the trailing shoots even
in
summer. However, if the plant seems to cope and you are happy, then
that's
not a problem. A compromise would be a raised bed, from where you could
deadhead and preen your fuchsia more easily.

I have one of these trailing fuchsias, and have it just planted in the
garden, not in a hanging basket or box, it seems to be doing brilliantly
and
has tripled in size, will it continue to grow or do I need to put it so
that
it can "trail"?

I really like it where it is and would love for it to stay there.
