If anyone likes to have certain plants around to attract the hummingbirds, here is a great one - there are no birds in the pic, but let me tell you, they are swarming this plant all day!

It is a lipstick vine, I got it at Home Depot (exotic angel plant) I am not sure of the exact name of this particular variety, but it should be an "Aeschynanthus" of some sort - the foliage is green with goldish variegation. It took a year or so to bloom, but loves lots of sun, tolerates a little neglect, and blooms like crazy when it gets around to it. Definately a hummingbird favorite!
