Out here in south Texas, zone 9, hummers go nuts over Turk's Cap, Campsis Radicans, Mexican Flame Vine, Fire Bush (hamelia patens) and Sapphire Showers/Golden Dewdrop Bush (duranta repens).

When my bananas trees start blooming and putting out fruit they fight over the blooms.

Of course, they fight over the feeders too :o)

Pretty much all of those I mentioned grow and bloom all year around down here...then again, we don't usually have freezing temperatures or a real Winter.
