Hi.
I have some fuschia in haging baskets. I bought them from Aldi, and potted one basket up the day I bought them (about 2months or so) and left the other in the greenhouse as my hook needed refixing. They ended up in the greenhouse for three or four weeks. These are now also up, and looking stunning, I feed bothe every week and take great care to deahhead etc. But now, the first one is not looking well at all, the buds are not getting very big, and it's about half the size of the other (in fact there are four plants in each one, they came in a set of four). I have not noticed small uneven brown dry looking patches on about 50% of the leaves, I have looked for caterpillars or other insects but can see nothing, is there anything I can do to save it now?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

It's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your window
Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory. - Ghandi
