amazing, the little red tubular flowers are also very attractive with their delicate greenery

Those Russelia flowers attract a lot of butterflies, bees and the Sunbirds.

a great plant to have in your garden then! beauty and wildlife!

Yes more definitely. One of the best reasons for growing Russelia is to attract butterflies and bees.

i love butterflies and bees are essential, which reminds me i must buy some honey ~ somebody sells it just up the road from here

I'm lucky that we also have a few people selling honey around my suburb too. Much nicer than the shop-bought.
