If you love the sight of hummingbirds darting through your garden, planting the right flowers can turn your yard into a year-round haven for these tiny, energetic visitors. Southern California’s warm, dry climate is perfect for many nectar-rich, drought-tolerant plants, making it easy to attract and support hummingbirds while keeping your garden water-wise.
Hummingbirds burn a tremendous amount of energy and rely on nectar-producing flowers to fuel their constant movement. While feeders can help, the best way to support them is by planting a variety of blooming plants that provide food throughout the seasons.Best hummingbird flowers for Southern California
