I love fuchsia plants. However, I have one that I have in a window box, but I have struggled to find the right spot for this plant. The tag indicated it could be planted in sun or shade, but this does not seem to work in the south. We are in the middle of hot, humid (90+ degree) weather in Nashville this month, and I believe that is part of the problem. It has grown and flowered well, but I initially planted it in a window box and believe it was receiving too much direct sun. I have moved it to an area in the backyard that has quite a bit more shade. It has a ton of flower buds, so I am hoping it will bounce back.
