Hi ZUZU
Just reading through and came across your thread. You can tell that gent that I have seen the eighth wonder of the world, as you can certainly over water fuchsias. They are fibrous rooted and if given too much water, they will drown. Their ideal is a moist soil with some shade during the day. If they dry out, dunk the whole plant in a bucket of water till the bubbles stop, then let it drain. Over here where I am, September is the best time for them as we get mist off the sea and it's not to hot, and they look great. Just remember where the majority of them come from. Just below the frost line of the Andes mountains, in shady forest areas. If you can give them that environment, they will love you.
