What do you do for hummingbird food? I’m trying to attract them to my apartment’s roof garden. I see them up there once or twice a year so I know they get this high up but I want more

You can make hummingbird nectar at home. I think it’s 4:1 water to sugar, let it cool after boiling to dissolve and fill up a feeder. Double check the ratio but I used to get them at my 21st floor apartment. Good luck, they are my favorites!

Plant a little salvia and place feeders near. mine used to draw them in like cats to catnip.
