Russelia equisetiformis, commonly called Fountain Bush, is a fast-growing ornamental shrub native to Mexico, best known for its cascading, fountain-like stems covered in bright red tubular flowers. Its fine, rush-like green stems give it a soft, flowing appearance, making it especially striking in hanging baskets, retaining walls, and elevated planters

It flowers freely for long periods, often almost year-round in warm climates, and is highly attractive to hummingbirds and other nectar-feeding pollinators
