some brighter summer colour along this fence.   I would like low growing stuff as it also borders a path.    I am quite fond of fuchsia, and wondered about the hardy dwarf shrubs.  Any advice and any ideas please would be welcome. Fuschia will do well

Hi I am new to the forums, so I apologise in advance if this topic has been raised before. I would like to grow a standard fuschia having only grown trailers before. Is it possible to grow a standard from a trailing variety?   Cheers   jayne Hello

Over the last so many years there has been much debate regarding compost for sale especially as most companies look to reduce the peat content , as previously mentioned i choose to use Erins MPC with added John Innes as this suits my main growing

, especially as we're talking a small amount in the air rather than on the roots or leaves of the plants. Here's another suggestion, Fuchsia Thalia.   Hoyas are lovely and can grow to be pretty large My first thought is 'what are the light levels like?'.  If it

sciriad flies-more of a nuisance than a pest-they live on the top of too damp compost That would not cause the symptoms with the fuchsias-it may be too cold for red spider mite If the cuttings are rooted my advice would be to remove all the leaves
