fushia - perrenial die back and regrow
lobelia - annual
geranium - perrenial die off and regrow - taking cuttings is good

taking a cutting froma geranium is as simple as snapping the bit you want off (leaf and shoot) and sticking it in some potting compost - they are soooooooooooo easy to grow really - oh and lots of watering in the growing season but not the winter

I was taking geranium cuttings before the web was invented - learnt it at my mother's knee
