  Message: I bought a fushia that was in a tiny container and  transplanted into a plastic hanging basket w/o drainage holes. I used two  inches of rocks at the bottom and potting soil. I insytalled a drip irrigation  system and set it to water twice daily for 30 minutes each time. The plant was  soggy and the dirt stunk so I took the plant out and got rid of the dirt, poked  holes in the planter and replaced the potting soil and replanted attatching a  plastic drip tray to the planter. Now my plant looks droopy. I have the plant  in a shaddy location. Is it a lost cause, or can I save it?

Message:  This can be done at any time.  Prepare a hole the same size as the pot.  Remove the plant, loosen the roots on the outside of the pot and place in hole.  Firm soil around plant and water.

Message:  I bought a standard Fuchsia which has flowered well this summer. For over-wintering do I cut it back like with normal ones? If so how much do I cut it back by?

Message:  Lynne, I'm no fuchsia expert but with most plants, lack of blooms is due to overfeeding � getting the plant a little 'hungry' tricks it into thinking it needs to work harder on the flowers. Hth  :)
