Fuchsia Pre Bonsai, Part 2

Part 2 of a fuchsia I rescued in the summer of 2019 and have been allowing it to grow unchecked to regain strength so that it can one say begin its journey as a bonsai.

The trunk has thickened quite a bit in the past year. I imagine it would look stunning with flowers on.

I just potted my first Fuchsia. Your video was great to watch. 👍

Whatever you’re doing to promote healthy root growth is working. I’ve yet to see one of your trees that doesn’t have a solid root ball. Well done!

Really nice small leaves and the start of some radial feeder roots. Great potential. Looks like it’s off to a great start. Thanks, keep growing

Foist!!! Even Baby Stella watched this one today. I love this tree. It reminds me of my yellow flowering lantana. I see you left the foliage this Autumn/early Winter. It’s been tough using restraint and letting mine all grow out for trunk thickness…but I think you were right when you advised me to leave them alone. The repot looks great too. Cheers broski 😎🍺🍺

What a nice little tree! Great job as always. 👍 The only problem is now I want a fuchsia. 😁

You really know how to promote root growth in your trees!
This fuchsia will probably look amazing in about 5 years or so. That's some amazing growth!
Reminds me of the hibiscus I dug up this summer. Have a great day bro.

Great work as always, looking so good after all your hard work!!

Great growth and development in such a small amount of time!! You have a great sense for branch selection!

Fun fact - if you look inside the 'spit', you will often find a spittle bug nymph. Harmless on developed branches since they are solitary. However, I've found that they can stunt and disfigure tender new growth as they suck the sap. I've started removing the 'spit' when I see it, and the problem disappears.

I was considering one of these as the flowers are fantastic. Once you have the shape you'll need to get to know the plant, I watched something a few weeks ago about understanding when buds are set are spring, summer and autumn flowering plants.
As always fabulous work, I love months of work condensed into minutes.

Great work Ian! Is this a yearly repot or once every two years?

[LaszloBToth-rbqg]

I love it!🤩 I’m searching a fuchsia material maybe for 2 years, without any success. :( Is it a fuchsia microphylla?
