🏡. When first starting out with your humming bird feeders ;
Please advise your viewers to start out with small amounts of the sugar wster ( approx. 1/3 ) of the feeder until you notice it is being used then gradually fill up as more visitors come to your feeder. There is not so much waste as you must clean your feeder more often as every or two and fill .
Hope this helps !

New subscriber here!
Could you please tell me the name of the specific hosta and huchera (coral bell) you showed ? TIA
Directions say to cut back buddlias ( the butterfly bush ) in early spring . I just planted it last fall and we have had a severe spring below freezing temps at night . Today is our first day of 60 ° weather on April 8 , 2024 in Zone 5 . I have lost all bulb blooms ( daffs , etc. ) , should I also cut back my double blooming lilac ? I thought it died but, suddenly and out of shape its leafing and has drk. purple blooms creeping on it but it really needs cut back because niether one has never done well . Please advise . I lost 7 little quick fires , 3 bobos , which I cannot replace due to $$. I was hoping for starts from the boomerangs . I have followed organics and directions . It's been 💔 for me . I am older and just need direction for my newer plants now and lilacs please . Do I really cut these little things back in their first spring or give them a year . I know the big black smokebush I will cut back after blooming and the lilacs I trim after blooming but, can I cut them back without losing their Second Bloom Cycle ? Thaank you for your Video. This is my whole wish was to have a sun and shade garden for Humming birds and you have provided all this and more ❤ I believe you also had a video for moles and. Oles at one time . I hope to find an updated version . Great Video. Great Options !
What do they use to get these types of blooms ??? I use Biotone at the time of planting and water well .,Plantone spring& summer . I have never votten these results ! My soil is sl. alkalotic , rich black . I have no invaders on leaves and roots . Adequate water to rootball . What watering schedule do you have , what type of soil starter are these plantsin ?
What about deer resistant Hummingbird shrubs?
Love your content. Subscribed could you please mention the zones of your plants
Thanks so much! We are in zone 7a-8a at McDonald Garden Center in Virginia Beach, VA.
Do you need to boil water for the hummingbirds before feeding them?
Does your store sales online? I’m in PA
Unfortunately, we do not have an online store at this time on mcdonaldgardencenter.com. However, if you are ever in the Virginia Beach, VA area, we'd be happy to help!
Do you put something in the birdhouse?
Did throng the bees!!
Can a barking dog hear away the hummingbirds
The presenter was very friendly and enthusiastic but the correct information was unfortunately not always shared. Many plants shown are not really top tier hummingbird flowers and should have been left out. It is important to use only white refined sugar and water in hummingbird feeders with no red food coloring and cleaning of the feeders should have been emphasized more. Thank you!
Oohhh, it's got electrolytes, what plants crave....
