Hummingbird Garden

Hummingbirds

12 years ago

I have 4 hummingbirds that visit us every year. I want them to continue to come. I bought some trumpet vine seeds,(campsis Radicans) and some ( red cypress vine seed) As I read the forum , no one mentioned these. I live in west Texas. Very dry, will I have success with these plants?

I would definitely have a feeder out for them. Sometimes in the spring they show up here and I hardly have anything in bloom.

Trumpet vine grows wild here and the hummers go to it. I used to grow the cypress vine and they loved it!. It used to reseed but the last couple of years I didn't have any come up.

Good luck!

I'm still seeing them at my feeder as of today but I know it won't be much longer and they'll be gone until about April. :(
