Select plants like bee balm, salvia, and fuchsia for small containers. Ensure the plants have bright, tubular flowers that attract hummingbirds.
Consider the size of the container - opt for ones that are deep enough for the plant's roots to grow. Ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogging.
Choose plants that bloom at different times to provide a continuous food source for hummingbirds. Include a mix of colors to attract more birds.
Place the containers in areas with partial sun exposure to provide the right balance of sunlight for the plants. Protect from strong winds.
Regularly monitor the plants for signs of pests or diseases. Prune dead flowers to encourage new growth and maintain plant health.
Water the plants regularly, ensuring the soil is moist but not waterlogged. Use a balanced fertilizer to promote healthy growth and vibrant blooms.
