Fuchsias prefer partially shaded to full sun conditions but require protection from harsh afternoon sunlight. They thrive in well-drained, rich soil and need regular watering to keep the soil moist but not soggy. Fertilize every few weeks during the growing season and prune after flowering to maintain shape.
