Epilobium canum ‘Everett’s Choice’ is a low-growing, spreading perennial subshrub featuring fuzzy gray-green foliage and striking tubular orange-red flowers. Uses include erosion control, rock gardens, groundcover, weed suppression, borders, retaining walls. Useful in seacoast landscapes. Very low to low water use. It thrives on minimal moisture but benefits from an occasional deep summer soaking to look its freshest inland. Extremely drought tolerant once established, requiring little to no summer water along the coast. Highly adaptable to soil types. It tolerates poor, lean, sandy, rocky, or heavy clay soils, provided there is decent drainage. It prefers full sun but can tolerate light, afternoon partial shade in hot desert/inland locations. It becomes leggy and sparse in heavy shade. Fire-resistant. Deer and rabbit-resistant. Resistant to Verticillium wilt. Cold hardy to 5°F.
