No. It will not survive your winters and might not even survive being inside your home. Fuchsias require warm locations with filtered light, moist soil conditions, and humidity levels between 40 and 80 percent. If you can't naturally provide that then they will not do their best.
Reply:Since you bought the tree in NY it should be a plant that is good for your planting region. I haven't seen many of them planted in the NY area, the winters are really harsh on alot of plants. You best bet is to call and ask the plant store you bought it from. They are sure to know the specific species that you bought at their store and could tell you if it is a hardy plant that can handle the cold winters.
Reply:Sorry but the fuchsia tree is not hardy in your zone. It's hardy to Zone 9 %26amp; can take temps down to -7 C. Your area gets colder than this in Sept - Oct. (-7 C is approx 20 F) Keep it potted,bring it inside after Sept 15th %26amp; cut down on it's water. When you bring it inside spray it down with soapy water %26amp; check it thoroughly for insects %26amp; it should be with you for many years.
Reply:What you have a nice mature fuchsia that's been trained and trimmed into a tree shape. It's the same as a rose "tree" or a rosemary "tree."





Follow Deslotre's advice and bring it inside when the weather turns cool.
Reply:i have never heard of a fuchsia tree


however, fuchsia will not survive your winters outside


bring it in before the first frost, keep it near an east-facing window
Reply:I live in UPSTATE NY and have a HUGE fuchsia "tree"... I have it inside in the fall and winter because it cannot survive below 45 degree temps... However, in the summer, (about Mid May after the threat of frost is GONE) I bring the plant outside (have to drag it because it is way too big to carry)..and put it next to my garden in the direct sunlight... IT thrives and gets thick and full and flowers DO grow, however, only one flower at a time, and each flower only lasts a day... Then, come mid September, I drag it back into the house and put it next to a special DAY LIGHT I had to buy for my parrot.. both enjoy the "day light" lamp. (it's a special light bulb I purchased at my vet because my Macaw needed more light in the room he is in.
