Epixiphium wislizeni, commonly known as baloonbush, is a species of flowering plant in the plantain family, Plantaginaceae.
It is a scrambling or climbing perennial subshrub native to Chihuahua state in northern Mexico and the south western United States (Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas) where it grows in sand dunes.
[1] It has tubular flowers in shades of blue to violet and white and more-or-less triangular untoothed leaves.
In 1926 Philip A. Munz placed it in a separate genus as Epixiphium wislizeni.
[2][1] The species epithet wislizeni commemorates Friedrich Adolph Wislizenus.
