Re: Hardy fushcias in Mediterranean climate

Title: Re: Hardy fushcias in Mediterranean climate
Any of the magellanicas.  Here is a great page about them. http://www2.dicom.se/fuchsias/hardyeng.html
In my zone 9 they rarely even die back to the ground in the winter; although they do drop some leaves and tend to look a little ratty.  I give them a hard pruning in early spring and by late April or May they are full and bushy.

Which fuschias do you consider to be hardy?


I live in Sacramento, CA.  The summers are sometimes scorching here and my hardy fucshias do fine.  I have some planted in the ground and some in pots.  As long as you keep them slightly shaded and dont let them dry out, they should do just fine.

A friend is wanting to bring some 'hardy' potted fuschias from Scotland to the Costa Blanca. She is worried that they won't survive here. Does anyone know about the chance of their success of acclimatisation on a Spanish patio.?
 
Thank you everyone
