The Only Tree You Need to Attract Hummingbirds – They’ll Use it to Nest Now and Will Love its Fragrant Flowers in Summer

Hummingbird in a nest .

Hummingbirds are returning north after waiting out winter down south. On their journey, they seek backyards that offer their favorite flowers, nesting spots, and a safe retreat from predators – and there's one tree that does it all: the Temple Bloom Seven-Son Flower (Heptacodium miconioides).

It's one of the best trees to attract hummingbirds, offering them year-round support. In spring, the Temple of Bloom Seven-Son Flower (available on Fast Growing Trees) has lush foliage on its layered, airy branches, making the perfect hummingbird nesting spot. Come late summer, the branches are adorned with fragrant nectar-rich flowers which hummingbirds feed from before setting off south.
