California Fuchsia (Epilobium californicanum) is a perennial native to California’s foothills and coastal zones, distinguished by its vibrant scarlet flowers that bloom profusely during summer and autumn. This species provides critical late-season nectar for native pollinators when few other plants are in flower. It naturally dies back in winter, entering dormancy before reemerging in spring, making it well-suited to California’s Mediterranean climate and an essential component for sustainable native landscaping.
