Hi Corey, I’m sooo glad you mentioned Hosta blooms. Many gardeners ( and famous Utubers) cut the blooms off, but hummers and bees are all over mine. So keep the blooms! 🇨🇦👏🇨🇦
I saw my first hummingbird on my apartment balcony this morning! So beautiful to see here in the Rocky Mountains ❤
I have grown the gartenmeister fuschia for years now.And yes, the hummingbirds love them. I overwinter mine in the house.
Loving your content, like how you get to the point.
My dwarf blue penstemon is a huge magnet for hummingbirds, year after year.
My hummers always around 2nd week in April. I absolutely love hummingbirds. I bought me a 25pound of sugar, cause ill use it up fast. I don't use red food coloring in my hummingbird feeders, it's not good for them. I part sugar to 4 part water. Boil for 1 minute. My birds go crazy over it. I fix 3 gallons a week already. Thank you for always giving us great information. And always showing us beautiful flowers. Great, wonderful video.❤
As always, very informative! Thank you!
I just love watching the hummingbirds! I've also noticed them liking canna lilies and mandevilla/dipladenia as well. I have Veronica (Speedwell) planted in several areas of my yard. I am in Georgia and it's one of the most drought tolerant, stress free plants I have in my yard. I have divided mine several times -- once in the middle of the hot/humid summer and it didn't miss a beat! Never even looked wilted for a second. I prune mine back to the ground once or twice during the summer and it comes back looking fresh. It even had blooms all the way into December one year! Great video!
The hummingbirds here love my Weigela, which is absolutely gorgeous and full this year. Also seem to love the purple and red fuchsia I have hanging on my porch. I’m trying the cuphea this year too, hopefully it does as well as yours.
I. love your channel. and learn something new with every episode. I. also love that. you're in northern Michigan. as. live in. Jackson, MI. Thank. you so much for. taking time out of your day. to give us. great gardening ideas!!!!
They love the trumpet vine.. beautiful flowers that bloom all summer..
I hang all the annual hummingbird flowers and they visit them. We also have honeysuckle vine that attracts the hummingbirds. I also noticed that the birds find something that attracts them on our raspberry bushes.
Out of all the myriad hummingbird attractors I plant every year here in northern Illinois, the one the hummingbirds flock to is the Black and Blue Sage (salvia) 11:08
They love monarda (bee balm) and pineapple sage. The sage blooms in the fall, when a lot of the other flowers are done.
Dude - I love your videos!
❤😊
This is my first year trying Cuphea. Apparently, people grow it as a pond marginal, so I'm trying it in the bog filter of my pond. It's always exciting to find new plants that pond well. Surprisingly, many of them do!
Thanks for all the good ideas!
I’m waiting & watching for my hummingbirds have my salvias & feeders

That's great good luck my friend 😊
I am liking all the video you upload because I think you deserve so much more audience on your very informative content. ❤
That Gartenmeister fushia is what I found my first hummingbird sampling five years ago since then I’ve also added black and blue salvia again another magnet for my solo hummingbird. It usually visit on its way back south in September/October. Wish I could have more and in summer😔
Thanks Corey! I vow not to chop off my hosta flowers this year! I really hate how un-tidy they look. I guess I didn’t realize the hummers like them so much. How selfish of me!. Would you consider a video on what to plant now to ensure we have great fall annuals and perennials! Every thing looks so tired and boring in August. I would love your thoughts.
Same.
The red dye in hummingbird nectar is not good for them. I love all the flowers you have. I would love to find some of the old bleeding hearts that were really deep red so it looked like the hearts were really bleeding . One of my neighbors had them all around the front of the house. This was many years ago.
I cant find the passion fruit lantana anywhere! I really want it for my containers.
Does cuphea spread by rhizome?
It’s an annual here, and we get it in as a small plug, so I don’t know how it’s propagated.
@@UpNorthGardenMI Ah, okay.
I’m in zone 9b NorCal.
One would presume Agastache is pronounced similar to moustache, but Dictionary of Plant Names says a-GAH-sta-kee, while Fine Gardening says ag-ah-STAK-ee, and those match the Greek origin ágan (very much) and stákhus (ear of grain) with the hard 'k' sound.
In my experience, even if industry people pronounce it correctly with a 'k' the customers will continue to say the moustache way, and then look at us industry people as if we're stupid, and mispronouncing it, lmao.
Regardless of pronunciation, the important thing is that in the end we all know what plant we’re talking about. 😀
