Thanks so much! Since I've had hummers visiting my yard this "winter" if that's what you call what we have here in Miami... LOL I think I've inspired others to grow plants for the hummingbirds! They actually brought me so much happiness and I'm preparing for their next visit!
Thanks again!

My Humminbird for the winter!

Trumpet vines are great in Texas. The hummers will find those right away. However, the ants and bees do too. They are a fast growing vine so don't plant them where you can't control by pruning often.

In my yard, tall Red monarda is their favorite. They are also very fond of the purple flowers on the common sage in my herb garden. They seem to love basil in flower. Coneflowers and zinnias are also popular. Some flowers like my azaleas, daylilies, hybrid lilies, and marigolds draw them in to my gardens but don't have much nectar. They go to the flowers briefly but then hit feeders I have placed nearby. The other flowers I mentioned get longer visits so I am guessing they are actually feeding on those plants.

In my South Jersey yard, it's definitely cardinal flower and coral honeysuckle.

They liked the flowers on the hostas until the deer ate them all.

I am not too far from Medina and here are some of the plants I grow yearly for my hummers:
Salvia guaranitca 'Black & Blue
Salvia greggii 'Cherry Chief'
Salvia greggii 'Cherry Stampede'
Salvia coccinea (Texas Sage)
Salvia coccinea 'Lady in Red'
Salvia coccinea 'Forest Fire'
Salvia coccinea 'Coral Nymph'
Salvia darcyi
Salvia subrotunda
Salvia azurea (hardy perennial)
Salvia reptans W. Texas form
Agastache rupestris
Cuphea ignea 'David Verity'
Canna indica
Fucshia 'Gartenmeister Bonstedt'
Lornicera sepervirens (Coral Honeysuckle)
Lonicera brownii 'Dropmore Scarlet'
Bignonia capreolata (Crossvine)
Heuchura (Coral Bells)
Aquilegia canadensis (Native Eastern Columbine)
Iris fulva (copper iris)
Lychnis chalcedonica (Maltese Cross)
Cypress vine (reseeding annual vine)
Monarda 'Jacob's Cline'
Lobelia Cardinalis (Cardinal Flower)
Kniphofia Uvaria (Red Hot Poker)
Mina Lobata (Spanish Flag - annual vine)

I'm sure there are a few more but this was what I could think of at the moment.
