Q: What are the 3 available models and how to distinguish them?
Three iconic flowers of our gardens, painted in their natural colors. The Magnolia (Ø18xH91cm) is the most delicate — wide petals in shades of pinkish white, the most elegant and spring-like flower. The Daffodil (Ø19xH92cm) is the brightest — characteristic bright yellow, immediately recognizable, the most sunny. The Poppy (Ø19xH92cm) is the most intense — bright red against a dark background, the most dramatic and the most visible from several meters away. All three have an identical central cup for seeds.
Q: What types of seeds can be put in these feeders?
The central metal cup is suitable for all types of bird seeds — whole or shelled sunflower (the most appreciated), garden bird seed mix, crushed nuts, crumbled fat balls. Avoid seeds that are too small which may scatter with the wind. Shelled sunflower is recommended for the first filling — almost all garden birds enjoy it.
Q: Can these feeders stay outside all year round?
Yes — balcony & terrace, outdoor garden and birds & biodiversity. The metal is frost-resistant (-20 °C) and treated with anti-UV for painted colors. The central dish should be cleaned regularly — ideally once a week, more often in damp conditions to prevent the seeds from molding. A slightly sheltered location from direct rain extends the lifespan of the seeds in the dish.
Q: How quickly will the birds find and use these feeders?
Garden birds are generally curious and quickly explore new feeding spots. At H91-92cm, the feeder is well visible and accessible. Generally, the first birds (tits, sparrows) spot the feeder within 2 to 7 days after the initial installation. Once a bird has discovered the feeding spot, others quickly follow by imitation.
Q: Is this a good gift for someone who loves birds and gardening?
The most original birds & gardening gift in the catalog — precisely because it solves a real problem (elegantly feeding the birds) with a beautiful object (a metal flower). For someone who already feeds birds with a classic feeder, it is an infinitely more decorative alternative. For someone who would like to start feeding birds, it is the most elegant invitation.
