    Love them hummers. We planted Jack Beans last year and they really worked them purple flowers over. They liked them so much they slowed down on my 4 feeders. Once the Jack Bean flowers were gone they moved on south. We also had zinnias and other flowers they like but they preferred the Jack Beans or Hyacinth bean. These are great to plant along fences or a trellis.
    I'll look into these, I'm about to build a lattice structure around my propane tank and was looking for something to plant around it.

        I have one that shows up early every year and buzzes me when I am outside until I put out a feeder. He reminds me every year when it is time to start feeding them.

          Plenty here in Las Vegas, almost a daily thing if I look hard enough.

            Just had my first of the year show up.

            Question... How long do you leave the food in , until you change it with fresh food.
            Mine has been out for a couple of weeks now.

                        Plan to fill a feeder and hang it this afternoon.

                        They should be showing up here soon

                          This time of year about a week for me, it just depends on tempature and humidity, you don't want the feed to begin fermenting or growing mold. I try to put out enough feed to last them a week or less. Mixed 3 cups this morning to fill 2 feeders, I'll adjust next weeks volume as needed.
