Pinch out the growing tips of your fuchsia plants once, to promote bushier growth and more flowers.Feed and water plants regularly throughout the growing season. Deadhead faded fuchsia flowers to encourage more blooms to be produced. Apply a deep mulch of bark around the base of hardy fuchsias in autumn to protect the roots from winter cold.
