Default Fuchsias - Bernisser

Hi all,
I am new to this site and this is my very first post, hopefully first of many. So firstly hi to everyone.

I have just started getting in to plants and gardening so I am a complete novice and my extent of knowledge is growing a few fuchsias last summer. I would like to go further with my knowledge on this plant and I'm very keen to grow a standard.
I have just purchased a Hardy Bernisser from my local garden centre. What can I achieve with this plant, can I grow a standard? If not, what is the best I can achieve from this plant?

Thanks for anyone that can help me with this.

David

First let me welcome you David I have just come across your post.

I have not seen this fuchsia ,but its a fun challenge .

If you have not started ,find a set of 3leaves and cut of and pot up in compost to root keep straight and nip out side shoots that grow till you are ready to

form the head.

When you are at that stage post aphoto to let us see.

Good luck.
