Greetings to all folks near and far.

With planting season coming up I am going to be looking for flowers that will attract hummingbirds to my patio. I do not have a yard, so can only plan on container gardening. I am thinking about getting some Bee Balm, Petunias, and a Butterfly Bush -- then I can plant Alyssum, Lobelia, and Violas around the edges of the containers.

If anyone has more ideas for plants that will attract hummingbirds, I would love to hear from you about it in my forum.

Here is my latest article from the Appalachia site at BellaOnline.com.

Wildflowers Of The Smoky Mountains
If you love the great outdoors and wildflowers you will love to slowly cruise throughout the Great Smoky Mountains from spring time right up to the autumn.

You are most welcome to join me in my forum to discuss this or any of my articles. I look forward to meeting you.

Till next time, may all your roads lead safely home. And always remember to never corner anything meaner than yourself.

May you walk in peace and harmony.
