As I was filling the bird feeders at the honeycombs last week, lots of hummingbirds were busy visiting the tubular pink flowers of the weigela shrubs! The shrubs are currently in full bloom, and their bright pink flowers are practically glowing. In addition to hanging feeders for hummingbirds, here is a list of plants you can add to your garden to feed and host them and enjoy their company in return.
Hummingbird-friendly plants:
Beardtongue — Penstemon
Coral Bells — Heuchera
Flowering Tobacco — Nicotiana alata
Petunia — Petunia
Summer phlox — Phlox paniculata
Bee balm — Monarda
Salvia — Sage
What plants do hummingbirds visit in your garden?
