These fuchsias are so beautiful! Swingtime is my favorite
I have a question: do fuchsias go dormant in winter? I would love to find a plant that blooms during winter months, when my miniature roses are in the attic.

Claudine fuchsias go to rest in winter and all my potte fuchsias need winter protection as theŷ are not hardy to leave outdoors.


If you can keep them protected from winter climates Claudine that would work then in March start to spray with tepid water till they start to re grow.

The first picture is just amazing, beautiful close-up! I love clear and clean close-ups, yours are always good! Your fuchsias are very pretty as well

It's a pity, I'm looking for flowering plants that don't go to rest in winter. Currently, I only grow miniature roses, so my windowsill looks really empty during November, December, January and February. I want to change it. I want a lovely plant that would brighten my room up when it's cold
