    I got hooked on Begonias because of that episode so imagine my joy to see this video from you guys after a winter here in Canada babysitting fuchsia cuttings from my neighbours hanging basket from last Summer. I just returned to her TWO full baskets with 4 bushy plants in each. I've learned even more about their care just now and excited that I will always have healthy Fuchsias year round and not have to pay $36cdn for each 12" basket every year. My begonia corms stored well and have resprouted for their 2nd season. I feel confident I'll have better blooms this year thanks to you all.
    Cheers,

    Thank you for this inspiring video. My grandmother (back in UK) grew prizewinning fuchsias and I have always wanted to try but thought that Australia was too hot. Now I intend to try because I have always loved the little ballerina flowers. My Mum also grew them and pressed the flowers to make art.

    Both the begonia and fuschia videos are excellent. Have subscribed and recommended them. I am in the NW of England and overwinter fuschias in the greenhouse. While on holiday on the West coasts of the U.K. (Scotland, Ireland, the Isle of Man) it’s notable the number of wild hardy fuschias growing like weeds and that people use them for hedging.
    I propagate mine using softwood cuttings in water. Virtually 100% success rate. While on holiday, if I notice a fuschia in a park that I don’t have, I sneak a cutting, putting immediately into a jamjar with some water in and it does fine for when I return home up to a week later, transported in the door pocket of my car. Worth a try and saves on cutting compost.

    Aaah, Peter is definitely one of my *favourite* tag teams with you boys! 😊
    I loved this just as much as the Begonia video! Many thanks for being so informative and easy to follow.
    Sadly, in recent years here in Devon, England my garden has been exposed to *Fuchsia gall mite* which limits my fuchsia collection. But, Ive managed to keep on top of it by promptly cutting back as soon as I notice it. I've recently just learnt that introducing the predatory mite "amblyseius andersoni" can help combat fuchsia gall mite, so I will be trying this method this year in an attempt to save what limited collection I now have left in my garden. Fuchsia Gall mite has only recently come to South of England and parts of Wales now too. So, if anyone else struggles with this, let me know if you know of anything else that might help. Many thanks.

    Thanks so much for covering this genus! I live in Southern Argentina right next to the Andes, and here Fuchsia magellanica is a native species, and by the way, one of my favorite plants! Loved the description of the berries flavor, absolutely agree.
    My mother has a huuuge specimen (2.5 m tall, and about 3.0 m wide) which I usually prune every winter or two... it usually bears thousands of flowers, the bees are quite happy all summer long.

I've had success with woody cuttings but I'm going to try some soft cuttings when I prune.

    Fuchsias are on my list of plants I want to grow, my grandma used to grow beautiful fuchsias on her porch. I have a Mediterranean type climate in Northern California USA with minimal freezing during our short winters & this gives me hope that I can add several fuchsia varieties to my garden as perennials.

      Fuchsia magellanica should easily survive winters in Northern California unless you're high up in the mountains, but it'll need to be sheltered from hot sun and dry winds in a Mediterranean summer.

    A most enjoyable episode thanks gents. I particularly enjoyed the dive into propagation and picked up two new things, 1 being that hormone powder/liquid can burn softwood cuttings and the fact that slow release fertilizers can exhaust themselves sitting in a bag of potting mix over a period of time. Surely, that only occurs when the bags may be sitting around during the warmer months as aren't the prills usually only activated to release in warmer weather of the active growing months or are the prills affected by the moisture during the cooler weather of non active months? If so, it makes sense to just have a tub of prills to use during the warmer active growing months?

I live in Northern California (the San Francisco Bay Area-zone 10a) and we had a horrible mite problem in the 1980/90s which pretty much obliterated fuschias. I lost all of my fuschias.

    I was looking for info on starting Fuchsias from seed and WOW found you now I'm excited and overwhelmed. Question: I have seeds that are marked Fuchsia Lantern ( purple & red ) they look like the Lord Byron you showed, before sowing seeds would you suggest pre-soaking or cold stratify or neither ? also I can not find any good information like you have shown ( Thank You ) I was going to start these in green house under grow lights but im getting conflicting info ( start in dark or well lit ). And finally can you train Lord Byron ( purple & red ) to grow upright like the awesome one you did in your video. Thank you so much BTW I am in Tennessee

    • @thehorti-culturalists
      @thehorti-culturalists  Месяц назад

      Viable Fuchsia seed shouldn’t need any pretreatment but I would sow in Spring in a well drained seed raising mix cover lightly with grit or course sand and start in light. Remember that seedling plants will vary and even if some look like Lord Byron their will be genetically different so can’t be given that name. Most Fuchsia can be trained as a standard so have fun.

The one time I cut a very miniature to the ground it took forever to grow again. What is your opinion on the best treatment in fall and spring to keep them happy and healthy. I always try to prune out the dead branches but am hesitate to prune to the ground.

I have very recently bought a couple of what I thought was quite a bit more expensive but so beautiful. I hope all I've just learnt will mean that I can keep them alive.

      Adam and Eve did eat of the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil 6000 years ago. They were formed out of the dust of the ground and God breathed breath into their nostrils giving them a soul and they were the first people to have a talking relationship with God, but because of their disobedience, unless one since the beginning of the new testament thanks to the obedience of the only begotten Son of God (as well as the obedience of Abraham of the old testament), whom allowed Himself to be sacrificed, the perfect sacrifice once and for all, because only blood can atone for sin, and triumphed over death, then those of us whom now choose to obey the one true gospel of Jesus the Christ to repent and to be born again of water and of the Spirit, have not only a talking relationship with God, but, also have a chance of eternal life at the very, very soon return of Jesus the Christ. To be born of water is to be baptised by full emersion at an age of understanding for the remission /forgiveness of sin, by a Spirit filled born again Christian and Spirit is to receive Gods gift of the Holy Ghost and Fire with the Holy Bible scriptures evidence of speaking in an unknown tongue as the Spirit gives utterance just like on the day of Pentecost. The day of Pentecost was 50 days after the ascention of Jesus the Christ to return back up to the right hand side of the Throne of God where He has been since even before the earth and the heavens and the seas and all that is therein was created. Jesus walked the planet for 40 days after He conquered over death on the 3rd day after His crucifixion. God is a Spirit and He seeketh such to worship Him. True worshippers worship in Spirit and in truth. Simply and sincerely ask God for His gift of the Holy Spirit by thinking about Him with your whole heart, mind, soul and strength saying hallelujah, hallelujah over and over again until you feel your tongue wanting to change and just let it. You will suddenly be speaking in a pure, undefilable language that you have never been taught or learnt directly to God. It is the evidential sign given that you have indeed received the Holy Spirit. There are other signs following, such as having the power to lay hands on the sick and brokenhearted to be healed. It is the same God used to create the heavens and the earths and the seas and all that is therein. With faith, nothing shall be impossible for you. God fills the vessel of your body to overflowing and gives you a full measure of faith. Faith also comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. You build up your most holy faith by praying in the Holy Ghost. The Holy Bible scriptures tell us to pray without ceasing both in the understanding and in the Spirit. Repent and be baptised every one of you and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost for the promise is unto you and unto your children and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
