| Pineapple Sage, Salvia elegans, is one of the last hummingbird plants to bloom in autumn. It is a major attractant for late migrant Ruby-throated Hummingbirds--and for other uncommon vagrant hummers that wander in from the western U.S. and Mexico.
If you have a sharp photo of this hummingbird flower you would like to contribute for this page, please send it to PROJECTS with info about when and where the photo was taken, the photographer's name, and any anecdotal info about the plant. |

| NOTE: We are not horticulturists, so we regret we can't answer specific questions about how to plant and propagate hummingbird flowers, but your local agriculture extension office or Master Gardener group may be able to help. We're also unable to provide names of sources from which you can order plants. | |
