  Has anyone grown this fuchsia? I bought 4 small plug plants which I have just trnasplanted into larger pots and they look very healthy so far. Its said to be frost hardy to -5c. Its the name of one of my daughter's so that was the main reason for buying!

  I brought 2 plugs of Delta's Sarah last year which I suspect it the same as Blue Sarah.
  
  I pooted them on and planted them out n the summer - one in a pot and one into the border. When I planted them out I made sure they were an ich or two deeper than in the pots they had been in to protect the roots. I also took a cutting of one and kept it in the unheated plastic greenhouse over winter.
  
  All 3 have survived the cold winter we had (I live in Kent by the way). I have a few hardy fushias and the Delta's Sarahs were the first to spring back into life. I cut mine back in march or april I think so all new growth is from the roots.
