Hummingbirds Go Nuts For This Exotic Flower & It's Clear Why
By AMIRA GUNDEL
Hummingbirds are drawn to the exotic beauty of the toad lily, a perennial plant that blooms with orchid-like flowers and thrives in shaded gardens where colorful blossoms are rare.
This low-growing plant adds a charming tropical vibe to your garden with its unique, star-shaped flowers that range in color from white to different shades of purple.
The sweet nectar and purple tubular flowers make it an irresistible attraction for hummingbirds, especially during the late blooming season when other flowers have faded away.
This period aligns perfectly with the peak activity of hummingbirds in August and September, offering them a crucial source of nourishment as they gear up for migration.
