Gardening - Fuchsia Berries

[ERICS MUM]

New generation fuchsias with juicy tasty berries - 300 per plant !

Just leave the flowers on after they've died and the berries will form. I was taught to remove dead flowers so they didn't form seeds - once seeds are produced the plant stops flowering.

So I'm confused as to how this plant produces berries and flowers all summer ?

I can't see how it will either. You will either get a half hearted crop of berries all summer or it will be one bumper crop. And also if you really want fruit or berries there are other, better options even for a small garden.

The plants are extremely floriferous, so keep on producing flowers, even whilst faded blooms are producing berries!

Can't see how they differ from any other very floriferous fuchsia.
You can get some very interesting plants from planting the seeds. They don't come true & most won't be anything special but now & again you get a real cracker.
