Perhaps they are spending more time with us *because* their habitat next door is gone. I'm just glad I was able to get some things growing before they cleared the lots on either side.Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09993407315693699146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3822343629005349934.post-71364011487930278132011-07-02T00:35:44.592-05:002011-07-02T00:35:44.592-05:00These beautiful flowers are all new for me.

Think there's a relationship?<br /><br />Going to put your firebush in the ground in autumn?<br /><br />Other hummer plants with blooms at different times: Big red sage (salvia penstemonoides) has great blooms, standing cypress isn't a perennial but reseeds well, coral honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens) would be pretty growing along your fence, Texas Betony is tough and blooms spring & fall, pineapple sage blooms early & late also--last year here it was still blooming on New Years when the rufous hummingbird showed up.<br /><br />Have a great 4th.Kathleen Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10868566314392048880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3822343629005349934.post-39223191780906501812011-07-01T12:23:12.947-05:002011-07-01T12:23:12.947-05:00Thanks Ami.
