I don't know Epilobium to species level on sight and have to use the identification key in Plantnet. Thus I need to see the hairs on the stems. In all your photos the leaves are covering up the stem.

I have added two photos. No 4 is higher on the stem and No 5 is a photo of the woody base of the stem. I hope that this helps.
