A delightfully understated native shrub, the American fly-honeysuckle, Lonicera canadensis has an exquisite scent. It attracts hummingbirds and butterflies - a long proboscis or beak helps in getting to the nectar.
I've watched bumblebees having a wonderfully noisy time flitting from flower to flower, though they seem incredibly clumsy and too bulky around these flimsy hanging trumpets.
