Hello I live in the range of both Baltimore (winter) and Orchard (summer) orioles but I have never seen any despite growing up birding and stuff :((( I've checked eBird and there's plenty of sightings around where I live too

I was wondering if anyone knew of any good plants for them?

---

This is long sorry but I have the following planted already that I think are relevant (for fruit and/or nectar):

Annuals

• Zinnias
• Pentas

Perennials

• Salvia Amistad

• 'Black and Bloom' Salvia

• Purple coneflowers (random collected wildtype seeds & orange ones from the __ spirit series that I hate the name of)

• Purple porterweed

• Firespike (several small thickets of them)

• Milkweeds

• Red hot pokers x 6 [should bloom next year]

Vines

• Trumpet honeysuckle
• Confederate jasmine

Shrubs

• Firebush x 6 (that I let get as big as they want)
• Dwarf butterfly bushes x 6 (3 of 2 varieties that were unlabeled)
• Bottlebrush that bloom year round
• Beautyberry

Trees

• Redbud

• Red Buckeye [baby still]

• Hog Plum [taller baby but still a baby]

• Dogwood [baby that I'm not sure is going to make it unfortunately]

• Elderberry

• Red Maple

• Chaste Tree

• Live oak

• Water oak

• Citrus

• Established/untrimmed old crepe myrtles that are pretty tall for that species and have the graceful elm habit orioles like

• Cabbage palm, Queen palm, Pygmy date, etc

My yard is pretty open but does have enough mature trees to attract canopy species like Yellow-throated warblers and vireos. I don't spray pesticides. There's a water feature (broken fountain I got as a freebie) that is used by a lot of birds, including the canopy species since its near a large Japanese privet. I'm also six houses or so from a tree-lined creek.

I'm almost out of space now (small yard) but if there's something I'm missing I'd be interested in hearing about it. really want these birds lol
