Description:
Fouquieria diguetii, commonly known as Palo Adan, is a tree-like succulent endemic to Mexico, particularly the southern Baja California Peninsula and the coasts of Sonora and Sinaloa. It can grow up to 24 feet tall and is characterized by its bright red, tubular flowers that attract hummingbirds. This drought-tolerant plant is suitable for xeriscaping and thrives in full sun. Its semi-succulent nature and deciduous habit make it a unique addition to arid landscapes. The plant's variation in growth habit and inflorescence length across its range adds to its ecological interest.
