    Description

    Hard-to-find, choice, and delightfully goof-proof, Eriogonum grande var. rubescens is a Channel Islands buckwheat that thrives on neglect and prefers dry, lean conditions. This evergreen California native produces clusters of rosy pink to reddish flowers from summer into fall, bringing long-lasting color and exceptional habitat value to sunny gardens.

    Also known as red buckwheat or San Miguel Island buckwheat, this drought tolerant perennial is one of the best butterfly magnets around. It is perfect for native plant gardens, dry slopes, pollinator borders, habitat plantings, coastal gardens, and clay-ish soils where fussier plants may struggle. The blooms pair beautifully with California poppies, sages, yarrows, coyote mint, grasses, and other water-wise native perennials.

    Plant Eriogonum grande var. rubescens in full sun with well-drained soil and minimal summer water once established. Tough, colorful, and endlessly useful for pollinators, this native buckwheat is beauty with purpose. Explore more habitat-friendly favorites in our California Native Perennials collection.

    Charming plant

    This has turned into a lovely small mound, which is currently blooming with a delightful mass of light red blooms.

    Slow Growing?

    Planted two a year ago and they haven't grown much beyond their original size. Getting too much sun? Not enough water? Don't like our decomposed sandstone soil? Slow grower?

    Attractive and Hearty!

    My one buckwheat has grown into a 2.5 ft diameter mound. The leaves are attractive and it is covered in the beginnings of a show-stopping bloom. It's thriving with low water in zone 10b.

    Zone 8b and doing well so far!

    Love this plant so far. Already have some stalks w/ blooms forming in mid-June. Love color. Soil is mostly rocky and clay. Hopefully it will survive winters here. Crossing fingers!
