Bird Attracting Plants i nursery Birds are a great companion in the garden! They pick off insects and sing you songs while you work. To attract them into your garden you need to provide them with a food source (nectar from flowers) and shelter/protection from predators. I find the best first step is to plant some trees or taller shrubs. Small Plants (to 1m)
