Choose Native Plants Plant native flowers that bloom all season. These plants are rich in nectar and attract local hummingbirds with ease, making your garden their go-to spot.
Add Red Flowers Hummingbirds are naturally drawn to red. Adding red flowers or plants with tubular blooms will grab their attention and provide a reliable nectar source.
Provide Clean Water A shallow birdbath or mister offers fresh water for hummingbirds to drink and bathe. Keep it clean to make your habitat inviting and safe for them.
Create Perching Spots Add small branches or thin wires as perching spots. Hummingbirds use these to rest between feedings and survey their surroundings for food or threats.
Set Up Multiple Feeders Place several feeders in different locations to reduce competition. This helps prevent territorial fights, allowing more hummingbirds to enjoy your garden. –
Avoid Chemicals Pesticides and herbicides can harm hummingbirds. Opt for natural pest control methods to keep your garden safe and healthy for all wildlife.
Include Shelter Plant bushes or trees to provide shelter from predators. These safe spots help hummingbirds feel secure, encouraging them to return frequently.
