Hummingbirds


My hummingbird flowers are blooming and yet no hummingbirds are to be seen. It is as if I lay a feast on the table and no one came. Here is what they are missing


Aesculus pavia
The large blooms of the red buckeye look striking with the white azalea. You would think a hummingbird would notice.






Rhododendron austrinum
This Florida azalea has a spicy sent. Irresistable, to me at least.




Rhododendrons
Many of azaleas in my garden declined to bloom this year, but these Asian hybrids are making an effort. Too bad the hummingbirds do not appreciate it.




Gelsemium semper virens
Carolina jessamine invites people and birds to the back garden.



Mertensia virginica
These Virginia bluebells planted themselves in my back garden.


Early spring garden, eagerly waiting for hummingbirds.

Meg,
Have your hummingbirds shown up yet? I saw my first one of the year at my feeder yesterday, (we usually see the migrators in early March)but the trumpet vine outside my kitchen window is almost in bloom. That should bring the little warriors back.
I don't know how they could resist your yard.
