Molbak's nursery also offers free handouts for their customers; one of which
is "plants that attract hummingbirds and butterflies." It breaks down the
list into sun vs. shade plants, as well as annuals, perennials, shrubs, and
herbs.
FWIW, they also offer great pamphlets on rose varieties, container
gardening, indoor plants for various types of light, etc. Just go to any
one of the kiosks in the greenhouse area of their stores.
Gotta love that Molbak's.

About a year ago I attended a presentation in Bellevue, Washington put on by
a gentlemen named Brett Johnson. He had conducted some testing of many
different plants to determine what the local hummingbirds liked. From this
testing he had put together a pamphlet which ranked which plants worked for
attracting hummers. You can try to reach him at his nursery, Green Man
Gardens, at 206-232-5734 or email him at BnBJohns at msn.com
Hope this helps.
