Hummingbird Haven

The Hummingbird Haven is similar to the Butterfly Berm, concentrating on masses of nectar producing flowers of various, vibrant hues including Blue Sage, Yellow Honeysuckle, Foxglove Beardtongue, and Red Buckeye. The addition of a hummingbird feeder or water mister can keep the ruby-throated wonders around from mid-spring to early fall.
