You are bidding on 6 Hardy Fuchsia Mixed plug plants.
Hardy fuchsias are excellent for growing in borders or patio pots. They are totally hardy and will come back year after year.

These cuttings have all been stopped ie had the tips pinched out and have new buds showing which will branch out quickly once planted giving lovely bushy plants.
Please look at the pictures above so that you can see the normal size of the plugs (shown beside a £1 coin for scale) which you will receive.

Caring for your plugs
Plugs should be planted into a good quality peat or John Innes based compost. We do not recommend growing in organic, peat free or homemade compost as too many nutrient problems can occur.
We recommend potting into 9cm pots or packs on arrival and planting into borders and tubs when the roots have filled the pots.
Plants should be grown in a well lit and well ventilated environment. Strict hygene should be observed to avoid disease problems. Light feeding should begin 3 weeks after planting. After 4 weeks plants should be budded up and ready for potting on into borders pots or baskets.
These plants should be protected from frost this spring but are totally hardy after their first season.
We do our best to ensure that plants arrive in the best possible condition but sometimes packages get damaged in the post. If this happens we require photographic proof of damage before any action can be taken.
Please use the Ebay messaging service for any correspondence.
Happy growing.
