Says John Tschopp, “It is common around here to hang up a Hummingbird Feeder and feed the little friends sugar water. Sharon has a few groups of plants in the garden she calls Beebalm. The flowers of this plant are very attractive to the Hummingbirds. The little birds feed all day long on these bright natural ” feeders “. The bird is the Rufous Hummingbird.”

They like the honeysuckle for both sipping from and perching on.
Thanks, Shirley! Great insight for any of us wanting to plant a hummingbird-friendly garden.
Our local garden shop has some bee balm in stock
