Flowers that are red and tubular are the best for attracting hummers. I bought some red verbena the other day and the male who's been visiting my front porch couldn't even wait for me to plant it before he partook. I'm posting this pic to show the silly guy going for the verbena (and you can see the red salvia planted next to it which he had also tasted) but I'm pretty sure he's not a Ruby Throated. I suspect he is a Black Chinned, but I'm waiting for confirmation on that in the ID thread. |
