    Too much sun or hot weather will weaken the plant and the flowers will not develop properly. Make sure there is adequate shade. Place basket in a cooler area if temperatures rise above 80 degrees F.

    Other than that, they pretty much care for themselves with proper fertilizer.

    When the flowers fade and fall off, remove the forming seed pod promptly. When a plant goes to seed, this informs the plant that it has satisfied its requirements for the season and it is now entitled to kick back and go dormant or die.

    Keep your fuchsia well watered and fertilized. Stop pinching to make it branch out when you want buds to start forming. Flowers form from stem tips, so pinching prevents blossoming.
