Ceanothus sanguineus

Red stem ceanothus, also known as Oregon tea tree, is a robust, upright shrub that performs well in dry, disturbed sites where it improves the soil through nitrogen-fixation and is a magnet for pollinators, birds and other wildlife. Bright green, deeply-veined oval leaves appear in spring, followed by fragrant tiny white flowers that cascade in elongated clusters from late spring to midsummer. The flowers have a pleasant fragrance and are coveted by butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds. The reddish-purple stems are also attractive in the winter.  

  • Plant type/canopy layer: deciduous, perennial, large shrub
  • Size at maturity: 3'-10' tall, up to 10' wide
  • Light requirements: full sun, part sun/part shade
  • Moisture requirements: dry to moist soil, requires well-drained
  • Bloom time: May - July (June in the Portland Metro area)
  • Growth rate/ease: slow growth rate, moderately difficult to grow (requires specific conditions)
  • Wildlife support: flowers attract and provide nectar to hummingbirds, adult butterflies, bees and other insect pollinators; seeds are consumed by many species of birds and small mammals; foliage is an important food source for Rocky Mountain Elk and is also favored by deer, rabbits, and livestock; overall plant attracts and supports beneficial and other pest eating insects, provides cover for birds and small mammals and is a caterpillar host and larval food source for the Ceanothus Silkmoth, and the Hedgerow Hairstreak butterfly (plus likely host to at least two dozen others)
  • Native habitat/range: grows in dry, temperate coniferous forest openings and edges, as well as recently burned areas, across much of western North America from British Columbia to Montana to far northern California, as well as populations in Michigan. In the Pacific Northwest, it is mostly found on both sides of the Cascades and out toward the coast. Portland Plant List - yes. 
  • Special features & uses: wildlife and pollinator favorite; drought tolerant; nitrogen-fixer; medicinally used by indigenous peoples in tea, as poultice for wounds; other ethnobotanical uses include making a green dye from the flowers and using the woods to smoke meat, also goes by the name  “Soapbloom” because all parts of the plant contain saponin, and can be beaten with water to produce a lightly-fragrant, foamy soap that cleans the skin without removing oil and causing drying; landscape uses include erosion control, bank stabilization, habitat hedgerows, rock gardens, pollinator gardens, and woodland gardens

Gardening with Red Stem Ceanothus: Red stem ceanothus loves exposed, sunny sites with low-nutrient soils that are rocky, sandy and/or loamy and sharply-draining. It will not survive in heavy soils nor clay. Like many other Ceanothus, the seeds require heat, which is naturally provided in the form of wildfires, for reproduction. It is exceptional in hedge rows, dry pollinator gardens, and on tough slopes or disturbed banks where it will help control erosion and will improve soils through nitrogen fixation.

Great for supplemental learning
Format: Paperback
This study guide is an interesting take on drug memorization, though the execution could be better. The coloring concept helps with memory retention, especially for visual learners trying to connect drug names with their uses and classifications. The organization by drug class is logical and helps build understanding of how related medications work. The basic pharmacology information is accurate and the quick-reference format is handy for review. The "made easy" title fits - it breaks down complex medication information into manageable chunks. The coloring activities do help make dry content more engaging, though the quality of the illustrations varies. Some drawbacks: the coloring spaces are sometimes too small for comfortable use, and the paper quality could be better - markers tend to bleed through. Several important newer drugs are missing, and some of the clinical information feels oversimplified. The binding isn't very durable - pages can come loose with regular use. For students, this works best as a supplementary study tool rather than a primary resource. It's helpful for initial learning and quick review before exams, but you'll need more detailed sources for complete medication information. Consider using colored pencils instead of markers, and maybe reinforce the binding before heavy use.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
