Creating a Hummingbird Garden

Choose nectar-rich plants like bee balm, salvia, and trumpet vine. Provide feeders with sugar water. Add perches and water sources for hummingbirds to enjoy.

Select a sunny spot with shelter from wind. Plant flowers in clusters for easy spotting. Avoid using pesticides to protect hummingbirds and other pollinators.

Include a variety of flower shapes and colors to attract different hummingbird species. Maintain a clean garden with regular pruning and weeding for optimal growth.

Create a welcoming environment with native plants that hummingbirds are familiar with. Consider adding a hummingbird feeder with a red base to attract more visitors.

Monitor the garden for hummingbird activity and adjust plantings as needed. Provide a mix of annuals and perennials to ensure blooms throughout the season.

Enjoy the beauty and excitement of watching hummingbirds visit your garden. Capture stunning moments with a camera to cherish the interactions with these delightful creatures.
