A silver-blue low-growing selection of California Fuchsia; possibly a cross between E. septentrionale and E. canum. Arching flower stems of glowing orange-red tubular flowers are a hummingbird delight in the late-summer garden.  Grows best in full sun or light shade.  For a handsome, tidy plant, cut foliage back in early spring. 

Good drainage is always best for this genus. Drought-tolerant once established, though some summer water encourages more prolific blooms.

Mature size: 6-10 inches tall & 2-3 ft wide

Minimum temperature: 10° F
