10 star Douglas! I need to plant something for the hummers at the retirement home. Suggestions? Bright red flowers? Something that can handle -20F and re-emerge the next summer.
OK I'm new enough here I've only just figured out the quote function - that message about the bergamot was for MedicineMan...
Beebalm ordered. Studying Cardinal Flower. Wet? No problem I'm surrounded by rhododendron and live in a (temperate) rain forest. Moss grows like in the Hoh here. Thanks for the suggestion.
Bee Balm (especially the big red ones) is like crack cocaine for them. Also before my Bee Balm blooms my Hot Lips Salvia is their favourite. Right now they are mixing between the two. I have a new Pinapple Sage that will bloom in fall I think and hoping they will like that as the other blooms go away. We keep our Anna's Hummingbirds all winter on V. Island so I will usually have a dominant male in full plumage by October set up shop and defend my backyard as his winter feeding grounds. That is good to have a splash of color all winter. You won't be able to pull that off where you are but at least you will have the Ruby Throat all Summer.
