As expected, potting up the multi-plant fuchsia from a 51mm (2 inch) to a 76mm (3 inch) pot has really stimulated growth (see Coriander Re-Pot Increases Growth Rate And Leaf Size)
. The plant is looking fine except for a weak plant (ringed red) which seems to be getting left behind by the other eight (the pot was originally made up last October from 9 cuttings). So it's not perfect. But I'm still pleased with things so far. It's growing much more evenly than the other fuchsias, which look as if they have have spent too much time on the town. I don't know what's wrong with them.
Of course, there's still a long way to go. But by next year, provided we don't lose the plant over winter, it should be looking really good. I'll keep it in this pot until it's almost filled with roots.
