Hello,
I have a fuchsia (the tag says "Fuchsia Diva pink/purple") in a hanging pot in semi-shade. The potting soil is Miracle-Gro. I have been following what directions I know about growing fuchsias. (I.e.: Keep the soil moist.)
My question is: How can I persuade this plant to grow better? It's still short and wimpy. If it's too late this year, at least I can know what to do better next year.
I live in Madison, Wisconsin, USA, in zone 4 or 5. I have no greenhouse. So we're talking about fuchsia as an annual.
I am not a skilled gardener. If all farmers had my knack with plants, the world would starve. All advice will be appreciated.
Thank you.
Ted Shoemaker
