Zone 10? Wow! So, I have good news and bad news. The good news is that you're able to grow any fuchsia you want. You won't have to limit yourself to the hardy upright fuchsias because all of the lovely trailing fuchsias will also grow in your zone without being killed by winter frost. The bad news is that you'll have to keep them in the shade. They would fry in the sun in your zone. Even in zone 9, we have to keep all of our fuchsias in the shade. This limits the number of butterflies and hummingbirds they'll attract. They will attract some, but not as many as plants grown in sunny spots will.
Are fuchsias available to you locally or do you have to order them by mail?
