I took these shots at my father-in-law's backyard. His trumpet vine is blooming already but mine isn't yet. I guess that the nectar of this particular flower is sweet because ants love em (just my theory lol).
I like the other color of trumpet vine.. orange. Mine is yellow too. I think that a combo of yellow and orange will be great when they bloom together.
See the bee enjoying her treat?
How about these ants?
Mother bee is busy..

Oh, I just love these pics! Yellow is my favorite color, and trumpet vines are marvelous!! I think they're also good for attracting humming birds, do you ever see those there?
