Dropmore Scarlet Honeysuckle Vine - Sale Price: $57.05 Hummingbirds are attracted to red flowers and sweet nectar, both abundant features of the hybrid Dropmore Scarlet Honeysuckle. It couldn’t be easier to grow: it will withstand cold winters, put up with drought and doesn’t need anything but a half-day of full sun and some moist, fertile soil to perform at its best. It’s a rugged semi-evergreen climber that’s virtually indestructible, even with haphazard pruning. Each year, from June to September, you can look forward to lightly fragrant masses of scarlet-orange tubular flowers that give way to small red berries in the fall (which the birds just love). Because it’s a vining variety, be sure to give it a sturdy support to climb on soon after it’s planted. Zones 4-8.
