    On this very warm early October day in Ontario, Canada, these flowers are still blooming well:

    Salvia ‘Amante’ (related to ‘Amistad. For anyone in the Americas, this is a real magnet for hummingbirds)

    Salvia coccinea ‘Lady in Red’

    Tithonia ‘Torch’ (which grew 5m tall and is still attracting monarch butterflies making a refuelling stop on their way to Mexico

    Russelia equisetiformis (wonderful hanging foliage with tiny leaves covered in tubular red orange flowers for months. A Mexican native, this also attracts hummers)
