Lin - I am really surprised! Not only do the hummers hit those plants I mentioned, but the butterflies are all over them too. That is really weird. I guess they like different nectar blooms at different times of the year or depending on the area they are visiting? Their behavior is different from Spring - Fall than it is from Fall - Spring. I mainly just have them in Winter (late Fall through early Spring) and they perch all over my yard and are very territorial. I have had 3 males the past couple of years claim my yard as their over-wintering vacation spot. I often know right where to find them perching too. They have their favorite look-out perches!
