WAS: Make your garden "bird friendly" now: Bird Gardens
In article , "mmarteen"
writes: I am thinking about planting a bird garden this spring in a now kind of ugly area of my yard at the back of the house near the alley. Stuff I am considering planting the Two kinds of amaranth Two kinds of millet Sunflowers (various kinds) Celosia (both the plumed kind and the cockscomb for looks) I was also thinking about putting a bird bath among the sunflowers so that they would have food and water. I'd love to hear any other ideas on design, varieties of plants or experiences people have had. mm Those are good plants for the birds, and the water is a good additon, too. Where are you located? south, west, east, north? Others in your area would have some suggestons I am sure, for plants that would grow in your area. I suggest some plants that have berries for later in the fall/winter. Be aware tho, mm, that you may very well become addicted, and soon your entire garden will be, literally, 'for the birds'!
