Size

• The ideal size for a trailing fuchsia is 8 to 10 inches. Heights of planting pots can vary, so look for a standard 8- or 10-inch pot, which will have the same height as the diameter. Fuchsia crowns need to be planted at least 4 inches deep, so a shallow pot will not work.
  
  

Planting

• Plant three cuttings in an 8-inch pot and four in a 10-inch pot. Place them halfway between the edge and the center of the pot to give them space for air circulation.
  
  

Post-Planting

• Hang the pot or place it in its permanent location immediately after planting. Position the plant where it will get morning sun and afternoon shade. Add a fungicide right after planting and irrigate until excess water runs from the bottom of the pot.
