CWF Garden - Hummingbird Bed

This bed provides nectar to hummingbirds through blooming plants with long tubular flowers. A decorative trellis was added at the back for a flowering vine. Most people think of feeding hummingbirds with sugar water, yet there are many native plants that hummingbirds naturally rely on as a source of nectar, including columbine, lilies, Penstemons, bergamot, bee balm, cardinal flower, honeysuckle and obedient plant.

Remember to keep your garden organic so that your hummingbirds can get sufficient protein from spiders and insects.
