Epilobium canum, commonly known as California fuchsia or Hummingbird Trumpet, is a perennial herb native to California and parts of the western United States. It features lance-shaped leaves with a silvery-gray hue and produces tubular, brilliant red to orange-red flowers from late spring to fall. California fuchsia is a favorite among hummingbirds and other pollinators due to its nectar-rich blooms. This drought-tolerant plant is ideal for attracting wildlife to the garden and is often used in native plant landscapes, pollinator gardens, or as a colorful addition to water-wise gardens.
