    Hi all,
    This year I saved some seeds from my Fuschia's and tried to grow them but I got no results just an empty tray, I planted them in Feb in a heated tray kept the temperature at 65 I left them for three weeks but no sign of any growth any suggestions for next time.
    Many thanks to all
    Denis

    Fuchsia seeds need light and sown fresh.

    I will be at Malvern Spring Show from Wednesday, and we have an expert who hybridizes Fuchsias will post his reply next week.
