Fuchsia Garden News and Strawberry bucket

That makes a nice picture Janey , I like the old bucket .......

Those strawberries have done well in there Amy, I had those hanging bags for them this year, but wouldn't use them again..........the plants at the top were always dried out......:o(

love that bucket..and the plant.
i got several fushia plants a few months back, the ones outside did not make it, but the ones inside are doing ok, getting bigger and having some blooms.
Any particular care you would recommend for them?

Thanks...Newfie........the bucket was in the shed for ages, lots of aluminium ware is popular this year, is it in Newfoundland? Most of our Fuchsias are in tubs, and I found they like plenty of water and a good feed one a fortnight whlie they're in flower.....also they seem to prefer the shade. Theyre dieing off a bit now so it'll soon be time to prune them back and wrap the pots in bubble wrap, then put them in the greenhouse all winter. Ian lines the windows with the wrap too, to keep it frost-free. Like you we haven't had much luck with hardy ones.........

what do your feed them with?

Well....we have Miraclegro here or Wondergro, a feed for all summer flowering plants and veg, you mix it with water and water it in, also I use Tomorite for tomatoes, a liquid feed, for the Fuchsias and Roses..........seems to work well...:o)

O i like this a lot Janey it looks great :)
