    heres more pics had a disaster with my fushias they seem to be all dying off for some reason apart from the ones in the hanging baskets, the nasturcians are growing like mad all over the place and my cup and saucer vine is just growing all over the balcony no flowers as yet.

    Lovely as always Rosa.
    I know your balcony is sheltered but could the wind have affected the fuchsias?

    Is that orange real or an ornament??

    Hi Rosa, lovely pics as usual! You sure have a lovely balcony there, puts my garden to shame:( My fushia's have been well & truly battered by this wind & rain. My first ones as well, from a member on here:( As well as other pots getting flooded! You obviously benefit from the protection of your balcony.

    cheers
