Zauschneria (Epilobium canum) is a
species of
willowherb, native to dry slopes and in
chaparral of western
North America. It is a
perennial plant, notable for the profusion of bright scarlet
flowers in late summer and autumn. The name reflects that in the past it used to be treated in a distinct genus Zauschneria, but modern studies have shown that it is best placed within the genus Epilobium. Other common names include California-fuchsia (from the resemblance of the flowers to those of
Fuchsias), hummingbird flower, and hummingbird trumpet (the flowers are very attractive to
hummingbirds).
