Very interesting list! Some I was expecting and some were quite the surprise! I was very happy to see Hot Lips Salvia in the countdown. I have a hedge of them in my backyard along the picket fence. They are one of the Ruby-throated hummingbirds favorite nectar plants in my yard. The "boys" fight over territorial rights to that area when they are over-wintering here in FL.

I currently have 11 of the 50 plants in my yard, but if I counted all the ones I used to have, I could add 10 more! Many I can't grow here in FL. but I sure wished I could.

Dave - I was surprised Crape Myrtle trees weren't in that list????!!! Blinking
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.
