You say Zauchneria, I say Epilobium—one thing we agree upon is that California Fuchsias are fantastic hummingbird magnets. And ‘Side Winder’ is no different. With vibrant orange-red flowers that bloom from summer into the fall, Epiloblium californica ‘Side Winder’ is sure to bring color and hummers to the garden. Growing 1-2’ tall by 2-3’ wide, this perennial has narrow, silver-grey leaves that hint at its drought-tolerant nature. Cold hardy to 10° F, drought tolerant, coast tolerant, and deer resistant, this Californian is adaptable. Plant in full sun for best flowers, but it can grow in part shade as well. The name Epilobium comes of the Greek words “epi,” which means “upon” and “lobos” meaning “lobe,” which refer to the flower’s position above its seed pod. Use Side Winder California Fuchsias in desert, rock, and native gardens.
