Planting hardy fuchsias

[@04nbod]

I bought some fuchsias lately but they just said Fuchsia. I have no idea if they are hardy or not. The label confusingly says 'Fully hardy to frost tender', well which is it? Is it hardy or is it not. Its very hard to tell. Yours seemed to have longer stems than mine, mine was full of flowers , bushy and small. Probably for ease of transit and store appeal. I guess I'll know next year

It depends, but more often than not if your fuchsia have the big bulbous flowers their not hardy, I’ve only seen one hardy fuchsia that has those bigger flowers (I’m sure there’s more).

When should I prune back my fuchsia ?

[@Mummabear543]

IwishIownedMonos early spring or just before winter.

Where are you planting these? Which hardiness zone? The video says Albany, which I assumed meant NY, but then I saw palm trees in the background and googled Albany and discovered there's an Albany Georgia. Big difference in zone!

This was in Albany Oregon. The description of our channel explains that we are a TV show in the NW of the US.
