March
Now is the time to look at our catalogue and pick your fuchsias for delivery in the Spring, We will start shipping in May, our fuchsias are all being slowly taken out of hibernation and cutting taken ready to be grown on in time for the huge orders that are flooding in.

To order plants for delivery when you require them just fill in the Order Form including your telephone number and print it out and post it to us along with your credit card details for the total amount due, we would suggest if it suits you to put a couple of substitute names on your order.

If you are selecting new varieties we find many of our customers are influenced by the  name of the variety and not by the colour and shape of the bloom, it is far better to grow the varieties that give you the greatest pleasure, you really want to see the flower or the plant to do this.

The potting compost we use on our nursery contains about 20% loam this gives a more sturdy plant and more weight in the pot. We pot through the pot sizes  i.e. one inch at a time pot size.

These plants can be fed once a week with great advantage and are pinched out when there are three or four pairs on leaves on the growing stem. If you start early enough you may be able to do this two or three times before flowering.

That's all for this month. Wishing you all the best with your fuchsias.
