32 Plants – 8 Species
Who doesn’t want to attract hummingbirds to their garden? These flying jewels belong to the family, Trochilidae, and are one of the most coveted pollinators that can visit one’s garden. With wings that beat 53 times per second, these little guys need nectar rich sources to fuel their very active life. Hummingbirds prefer brightly colored flowers, particularly red, that are tubular in shape. The components of this kit are designed to provide nectar all season long. Species are subject to change due to availability.
