Although these fuchsia cuttings have survived the winter so far, I want to cut them back to the new buds closest to the compost. This will remove any leggy growth which developed in the warm dull autumn days. Growth is a lot shorter and stronger now. This should produce a better plant. more like a shrub than a tree.
I am a bit worried about botrytis getting hold on the cut ends. If it does, there will be little plant left to save. Will just have to take the risk.
