Fuchsia lycioides or the Box-thorn Fuchsia is a species of Fuchsia found in Chile at elevations of 0 – 100 meters [1] It is the only species in Section Kierschlegeria
Fuchsia lycioides flowers are rose-colored and dimorphic, with four sepals and four small petals. The female flowers have a cylindrical floral tube that is typically 1.5-3 mm long, with a 6-10 mm style. They also have eight reduced anthers without pollen. Hermaphrodite flowers are larger, 2.5-5 mm long, with style lengths ranging from 14-22 mm. Although the tube lengths of the two flower types may occasionally overlap, there is a clear gap of 3.5-4 mm between the maximum style length of small female flowers and the minimum style length of larger hermaphrodite flowers.

It is easily recognised in its native environment by the characteristic appearance of its bark, which peels spontaneously, hanging in red papery strips to show a pale bark underneath. Its scientific name, excorticata, reflects this distinctive property.
