    Hi,

    This the third year I've been growing fuchsias, & my little sprouts have turned into healthy bushes, since I planted them in beds last summer. I wondering what kind of spring maintenance they need - ie. does one prune fuchsia's? When should I start fertilizing?

    I know this may seem early, but here in CA, we're having spring-like weather - yes, I know it won't last - and I'm having surgery in a month, so need to do my "spring" gardening before then.

    My plants look healthy, except for a few yellow leaves on the biggest one, and some have had some blooms through the winter.

    If this has already been discussed, please point me to the right thread.

    TIA.

    Liz
