This was one of my wife's potted plants from this spring. When I was away on vacation I was checking my security cam in the backyard one day and I noticed a hummingbird spending a lot of time on this plant. So when we got back yesterday I kept an eye out and sure enough they love it. Very unusual in my yard. Usually I can only attract them with feeders. Only problem now is my "gardener" is threatening to cut it back and chop off the flowers. She claims it will help it grow more flowers. I'm skeptical, of course I need to try again tomorrow morning hopefully for some better light.
