Farragut Garden Club |
Special thanks to the Farragut Garden Club for inviting me to speak to their group yesterday. The first time I did so was on September 11, 2001.
This time we talked about hummingbirds and the plants that lure them to your yard: red buckeye, coral honeysuckle, crossvine, trumpet vine, et al. The hummers are drawn to red tubular flowers because they coevolved together to serve each other's needs. The little pixies are so unique there's a chapter in my new book Ephemeral by Nature dedicated to their vaporous habits.
Thank you again ladies.
Yes. That would be my thumb! |
