Question
Hi Tom
How do I gather seeds fron a hanging fuchsia and then how do I store then.
thank you Dennis  

Answer
Hi Dennis,
Thanx for your question. The seed is hard to see.  It almost looks like dust.  After the bloom has shriveled, allow it to turn brown and then carefully remove the spent bloom from the plant.  Place it on a white paper plate and let it dry out for about a week.  After that, shake it over the plate, gently and you should see the tiny seeds sprinkle to the plate.  The link below will guide you through the rest.  Store all seeds in a cool, dark, dry place (inside a mason jar, sealed and kept out of light and extremes in heat).  I hope this helps.
Tom
