Fuchsia magellanica is one of the hardiest fuchsias in cultivation. It actually grows wild here in Cornwall. It is tolerant of a variety of soils and conditions but does require fairly free drainage. Soil ph should preferably be neutral but + or - 0.5 is ok.
If growing it in a container, it will be quite happy with a good quality multipurpose compost. Add some water retaining granules, and pinch back and feed regularly.
