Why not take a few cuttings as a back-up then if it doesnt survive the

you'll have some babies and wont lose it completely.

Hmmm I should have done that last year (when I really started gardening
properly) I suppose but I only appreciated how much more open and welcoming
my small front garden is with the fuschia cut back hard - hence my decision
to try moving it...


Unless it's a terribly unusual one, it shouldn't be an expensive tragedy if
it doesn't make it and you have to replace it. Get the new hole ready and
pop your Fuchsia straight into it and in the apparently unlikely event of a
dry spell, make sure it's watered.
