    Dense stems with narrow blue green foliage characterize this woody based California fuchsia Zauschneria 'Carmen's Gray' (Epilobium).  When contrasted with its dazzling fiery flowers it is quite a sight to behold.  We grow all of our Califonia fuchsias in dry well-drained or rain-only borders.  Definitely a favorite of the hummingbirds.
