.... fuchsias.

I've got a fuchsia called Riccartone in my back garden and it's gone
berserk. It's absolutely enormous and somewhere underneath it is an acer
I'm particularly fond of. I'm planning to move the fuchsia to the front
(north-facing) garden where we could do with something enthusiastic. But
I don't know if I should have done it in August, can still do it now or
ought to wait till spring.

cheers,

Liz

I would leave it till spring but take cuttings now, though it's late, but
worth trying.
When you move it prune it back hard
