There’s nothing quite like waking up to a quiet morning to hear hummingbirds zipping about outside. Besides contributing to the soundscape of a garden, hummingbirds, like bees and butterflies, are also excellent flower pollinators, carrying pollen from one bloom to the next as they feed on nectar with their needle-like beaks. Bonus: They also feed on pests.

If you want to make your garden appealing to hummingbirds in the hopes that they'll visit you more often, then the best way to do that is by choosing the right plants. Hummingbirds love flowers that are tube-shaped, brightly colored, and full of sweet nectar. There are many plants that fit the bill, but we've put together a list of some of the best.

Gardening is a rewarding and relaxing hobby, but it sure can take up a lot of space. From towering trees to sprawling English gardens, there are many ways to design and fill a garden if you have plenty of space. What if you don’t have much room, though? If your yard is small, or if it’s already full of other plants, then you might be looking for a way to maximize your garden while minimizing the space it takes up. One recent trend that can help with this is square foot gardening. If you’re not familiar with what a square foot garden is, we’ll break down the basics for you.
What is square foot gardening?

Square foot gardening is a method of growing more plants in less space by dividing a garden bed into equal sections of one square foot each. The number of plants you grow in each square depends on the size of the plants. The rule for square foot gardening is 1 extra-large plant per square, or 4 large plants, or 9 medium plants, or 16 small plants. The largest plants, such as spreading vines like watermelons or taller plants like corn or trees, should not grow using this method, as they take up too much room.
