I always wanted a hummingbird station where many birds feed at several feeders at once in harmony. I always have several bullies that try to run the rest of them off. My new station in Brunswick Co. will be in a wide open space. I hope it helps.
I've never done anything to attract hummingbirds to my yard, but I feel like I should. I've got a suet up in the back that I get all sorts of birds at, but of course not hummingbirds. Is there a low/no-maintenance perennial anyone would recommend that I could just stick in the dirt for this purpose? (I'm not much of a gardener at the moment.)

Red bee balm is great for them and pretty low maintenance - just don't plant it where a dog might pee on it because it dies (learned my lesson planting it near the front curb last year).
Make sure you know what you are getting into. Having spent the past few weeks trying to eradicate honeysuckle that had taken over and killed some branches, I have learned that it must be the cousin of kudzu, taking over trees and anything in its path. I have cut vines almost two inches in diameter. I never knew it was so invasive and grew so large.
