Deppea splendens (syn. Csapodya splendens), the golden fuchsia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. It has been extinct in the wild since its habitat was cleared for farmland. It grows to 12–15 feet (3.7–4.6 m) tall, appearing as a small tree or large shrub. It was once native to Chiapas, Mexico, but is now found solely in horticulture. It bears gold and pink flowers. Dennis Breedlove, the discoverer, brought back Csapodya splendens seeds in 1981. It is grown in the San Francisco Conservatory of flowers inside the Highland Tropics gallery.[2][circular reference] The Huntington Gardens in Southern California also has an example growing in its conservatory.
