@erikjohnson9223

@jasongross4241 He did not mention water in connection to the Asclepias (but rather as a requirement of the animal wildlife), nor even describe his cultural practices for the species (though the pictures do reveal it likes sun). My ID was based on the appearance of the plants (foliage, flowers with a crown that is a different color than the petals; also, it seemed popular with caterpillars [female monarchs usually oviposit on A. tuberosa only when other species aren't available--the foliage is tough [so hard for the babies to chew] and not very toxic [thus providing little protectionfrom predators]), not habitat (many plants can be kept growing in a garden where they would die / be outcompeted in the wild, after all). Neither species tolerates the often flooded conditions preferred by Asclepias perennis and A. incarnata, nor the true desert conditions tolerated by the "rush milkweed" (A. subulata?), which seems to have convergently developed the same form as Euphorbia antisyphilitica (nearly leafless succulent sticks clumping from the base), the "candelilla." While a (somewhat) clay tolerant form of A. tuberosa has been discovered, in general, the species requires sharply draining soil because it is native to dry meadows and prairies (not just the shortgrass prairie of the Great Plains, but also hills and sandy areas where rainfall is a little more frequent). I have never seen the native habitat of the neotropical Asclepias currassavica, but based on its cultivation preferences in the USA, I suspect it may have been from open pine/oak savanna and perhaps is a ruderal species that invades forest clearings elsewhere. Mexico has as many different habitat types as does the USA, from extreme deserts (both saline and not) to lowland tropical rainforests, and up the mountains through various more temperate forest cover, cloud forests, and even alpine tundra near the summits. I have no idea what you are even disputing.

Great video. Nature thanks you. Hummingbirds in our Alberta garden today are Ruby Throated and Caliope. Mostly migrants starting to head south to warmer climates. This week the little guys are feeding ‘mostly’ on honeysuckle, scarlet runner beans, sea holly and monarda. I cut back some of the honeysuckle and runner bean vines so they have a second flowering flush for the September hummers. We grow a wide range of native plants and they enjoy many but gravitate towards the pentstemons. Often overlooked are conifers. Hummers will retreat into the trees and feast on the sap. They are quite feisty and will chase away nuthatches, etc.

Hello, I live in zone 9b and the hummingbirds love the firespike plant and the firecracker bush. I think their favorite are the aloe blossoms. Those send up salmon-color flowers and bloom a few times in the summer and the hummers go right to them. These three plants thrive in the hot sun and can withstand the dry spells. We also have plenty of milkweed for the monarchs and a winter senna bush for the sulfur butterflies. Purple porterweed attracts all kinds of butterflies, too! I love your video!

That does not mean there are not areas which are all clay, but for the most part this is prime market gardening soil around here.

Salvias should be a major part of every hummingbird garden. Among salvias, guaranitica is at the top of the list. Large salvia guaranitica plants, loaded with blooms, are the workhorse during south migration in September here in the upper midwest (Iowa). 'Black and blue' is one of the few original guaranitica options, and I still usually grow one in a pot, but there are so many more options now. Every year the big plant companies (Proven Winners, Ball Flora, etc) and smaller breeders are releasing new colors onto the market.

Sadly all nectar plants feed millions of male aedes mosquitoes; grasshoppers & pests love eating the leaves & flowers too; if use any chemical spray or neem oil, then the pretty nectar plants are poisonous to pollinators. Salvias & butterfly bushes are hardy but I’ve seen less hummers in my area this year despite my organic nectar garden. Probably due to my area becoming all concrete from new overseas owners.

Hello! This is great information! Can I plant different kinds of those plants together and how far apart should I plant smaller plants? I have some of those plants in containers but would like to plant them on the ground for a pollinator garden. What do you recommend for placement of the milkweed? I have Should it be in front? Thank you so much!!

I saw a hummingbird for the first time last year in my small backyard garden. It is the closest thing I've had to a religious experience

The life cycle of the Monarch butterflies.... Flying north from Mexico to the southern United States, then further to the northern United States and Canada, then back to Mexico, is mind-boggling.

Coral bells and columbine atract all the humming birds in my yard. Then put out jelly feeders. We have an acre but planting too many flowers also requires alot of weeding. Found that out years ago and removed alot of perennials.

Thanks FairLife , those are good ones . Do you put the jelly out for the hummingbirds or for the Orioles ?
