Choose native plants like bee balm, cardinal flower, and trumpet vine to attract hummingbirds. Plant in clusters for easy spotting and create a hummingbird-friendly oasis.
Provide a water source like a birdbath or fountain near the plants. Hummingbirds need to drink and bathe regularly. Keep the water fresh and shallow for their safety.
Avoid using pesticides in your garden as they can harm hummingbirds. Opt for natural pest control methods like introducing beneficial insects or handpicking pests instead.
Hang hummingbird feeders filled with a sugar-water solution in your yard. Place them away from plants to prevent territorial behavior. Clean and refill feeders regularly.
Create a diverse habitat with a mix of flowering plants, shrubs, and trees. Include a variety of colors and shapes to attract different hummingbird species to your landscape.
Enjoy the beauty and wonder of hummingbirds visiting your landscape by incorporating native plants and providing a welcoming environment for these delightful creatures.
