Default Have I Lost my Fuchsias?



"Bookworm" wrote ...
I have overwintered my Fuchsia collection in pots in my cold
greenhouse as I have always done. (kept them on the dry side). This
year there is no sign of them producing fresh growth as they usually
do about now. I have scraped and broken the stems and they don't seem
very green. Am I being a bit impatient or have I lost them?


Possibly, but they may come back from the roots. Been a nasty winter this
year with days below freezing and outside constant rain such that I worry
for our garlic which is not looking well at all. Don't think it likes
growing in a very cold paddy field.
