Hi Hummingbird.

Fuchsias mainly come from the wooded mountain areas of South America, Just below the frost line. They should grown with this in mind if possible. They like to be grown in a dappled shaded area if possible. In the summer here on the east coast of England the temperature can go as high as 95f. and I have no problems with them, and during the year I grow around 80 different varieties, and around 400 to 500 plants. The tryphilla varieties are more heat tolerant, so you could try these. Also over watering kills a lot of fuchsias as people try to compensate for the heat. Keep them moist, not wet and a misting a couple of times a day may help. Hope this helps. Any other questions please ask.

John
