Its is Coral Honeysuckle Lonicera sempervirens 'Major Wheeler'

aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/ornamentals/nativeshrubs/lonicerasemper.htm

They all tell you it is Evergreen.. but here it loses its leaves in winter. It has pretty red berries in late Autumn.

I have other pics of mine

Super shot! The plant, I accept as a lonicera but it looks very much also like fuchsia procumbens. The leaves are the giveaway though. Definitely a honeysuckle! Happy Easter!

... a nice shot, the red blossoms add a repetitive component ... and while faster shutter speeds are needed to "freeze" those supersonic wings, blurring them gives a feeling of motion ...

... they don't seem to like each other very much; Ronald Losure chided me for calling them "territorial", so maybe they are just little sociopaths ...

They are very territorial ! I get about 15 here in Summer with a mix of males and females and the offspring. I call them My Little Squeaking Brats !

Oh Pam, this is just so beautiful! The flowers are lovely and that darling hummingbird...YES!! So CUTE! "Your squabbling fairies" indeed! LOLOL, I must laugh because that's such an apt description! Those little rascals love to dive bomb me if I get too close to their nesting tree! The tongue lashing they give me! It's so very RUDE! All I can do is giggle, the miniature pitbulls! :D How we love them. :)
