Fuchsias pruning

Pruning is important to encourage flowering and maintain the shape and size of your plant. Unpruned Fuchsias will eventually become very straggly with poor flowering. Pruning takes place in late winter for early summer flowering. In frost free areas, Fuchsias can be pruned in autumn. Remove all thin, twiggy or damaged growth. Cut back the strong stems, leaving two or three sets of nodes at the base of last seasons growth.
