Product information
These perfect pink postiplugs will bring a dash of brightness to any display. Supplied in postiplugs they will allow you to grow in your hanging baskets for a display that anyone would be jealous of. Eruption is named as it all over wave after wave of hot-pink!Product Specifications: Hardy Shrub Position: Sun or Semi Shade Supplied as 9cm Potted Plants Pot up Fuchsia ‘Eruption' using well drained compost such as John Innes No.3, and grow on in frost-free conditions.Nip out the growing tips while fuchsia plants are still small to help bushier growth and more flowers. When plants are well grown and all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over a 7 to 10 day period, before planting them in their final positions in patio containers and sunny or semi shaded borders. Feed and water regularly throughout the growing season. Deadhead faded fuchsia flowers to encourage more blooms to be produced, and tie the stems to their supports with twine or soft plant ties. Apply a deep bark mulch around the base of hardy fuchsias in autumn to protect the roots from winter cold. Prune out the oldest stems in spring when the fresh buds begin to break, and reduce the remaining stems to restrict their vigorous growth to the available space.Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity. Different growing conditions might vary results. Image may be included for illustration of supply but can vary due to seasonality changes (e.g. deciduous plants lose leaves in colder months).
