Most people think of Blue Eyes as a hanging basket fuchsia, but since I don't grow hanging baskets, mine went into the ground two year ago, ha, ha! He is doing just fine and doesn't need any support. I have just been pruning him to grow upwards. He has made it through hail and freezing weather. Right beside my F. magellanica alba, Cardinal, Black Prince, and Voodoo. I don't put as much energy into packing the base of these guys with high and light mulch in the winter, as I do the ones in containers. Because I know that if everything above ground froze dead, they'd come back up from under the ground.
Here is my Blue Eyes.
