Hummingbird favorites

Posted on May 16, 2022

There is nothing more magical than watching hummingbirds flutter around your deck while feeding on some beautiful flowers.

Hummingbirds are attracted to bright colors and tubular flowers, as the tubular flowers tend to hold the most nectar.

Here’s a list of some of our fluttery friends’ favorites.

Annuals

• Black and blue salvia
• Cuphea/ Vermillionaire
• Lantana
• Petunias
• Torenia
• Fuchsia

Perennials

• Honeysuckle
• Trumpet vine
• Columbine
• Bee balm
• Lupine

Planting any of these favorites in the yard or in planters around your deck will make for a very inviting spot for our hummingbird friends.
