Most hummingbird feeders are red, because red is what the birds are supposed to notice. It works, and it also means the shelf in the garden centre is a wall of the same object in the same colour, and whichever hummingbird feeder you pick disappears into the border the moment you hang it.

This one is cut glass in violet shading down to turquoise, and it is the reason to buy it. Light goes through the facets rather than bouncing off them, so the colour changes as the sun moves and the whole thing reads as a piece of coloured glass first and a hummingbird feeder second. The ports are still red-adjacent — five small violet flowers with brass centres — and birds find it perfectly well.

Underneath the hummingbird feeder, a black metal plate carries those five ports, and a single wire ring runs right round the outside of it. That ring is the perch, and it is one continuous rail rather than five separate loops: a bird lands wherever it happens to arrive and walks round to whichever port it wants. Hummingbirds will hover to feed if they have to, but they would far rather sit, and a perched bird stays long enough to actually look at.

The hummingbird feeder holds 25 fl oz, which is a lot, and stands 11.81 inches tall by 6.1 across with a base 1.77 inches deep. Worth thinking about honestly: a big reservoir does not mean you change the nectar less often. Sugar water goes cloudy in a few days in warm weather regardless, so unless you have a busy garden, fill this hummingbird feeder half full and change it on the same schedule you would use for a small one.

Where the glass meets the base there is a rubber O-ring and a screw fastening that pulls the two together. That is the mechanism and that is all we will say about it — every hummingbird feeder in this category is sold on a promise about drips, and the honest version is that a clean thread, a seated O-ring and a firm turn are what keep nectar where it belongs.

What is in the box is the feeder, the base and the hardware to hang it. If insects find the nectar where you hang it — and somewhere in most gardens they will — a small water cup threaded onto the line above any hummingbird feeder is the cheap, old answer, and it works on this one as well as on any other.

Cleaning is a wide-mouth job — the bottle opens far enough to take a bottle brush and the base separates from it, so every surface is reachable. No brush comes in the box. Hang the hummingbird feeder from the flat-topped handle on a branch, a bracket or a shepherd’s hook, somewhere with light behind it, because that is when the glass is worth having.

One size, nothing to choose — what matters is where it goes and how full you keep it.

Perch – one metal ring right round the base

Cleaning – wide mouth; hand wash; no brush included

In a quiet garden, fill it half full. A large reservoir emptied slowly in warm weather means pouring nectar away rather than refilling less often.

THE GLASS

Cut Glass That Changes Colour Down Its Height

Violet at the shoulder shading through magenta into turquoise at the foot, cut all over into long flat facets. Light goes through it rather than off it, so the colour shifts as the sun moves round. Hang it where something can get behind it.

TWENTY-FIVE OUNCES

Twenty-Five Ounces

11.81 inches tall and 6.1 across, on a base 1.77 inches deep. It is a large feeder, which suits a busy garden; in a quiet one, fill it half full so the nectar gets changed as often as it should be rather than as often as it runs out.

WIDE MOUTH

You Can Fill It Without A Funnel

The bottle opens wide enough to pour straight in and to get a bottle brush all the way round the inside, and the base comes off it. Every surface the nectar touches is a surface you can reach. A brush is not included.

WHERE IT GOES

Hang It Where You Sit

A border, a balcony, a back fence, the edge of a path — anywhere with a little clear air around it so birds can approach from any side. Somewhere with light behind it does the glass a favour, and somewhere you can see from a chair does you one.

Frequently asked
questions.

The questions people actually ask before buying one.

The feeder itself — the faceted glass bottle, the metal base with its five ports and the perch ring, the O-ring, and the handle you hang it by. No cleaning brush. If insects find the nectar where you hang it, a small water cup threaded onto the line above works on this feeder as it does on any other, and costs very little.

25 fl oz, at 11.81 inches tall including the hanger, 6.1 inches across, with a base 1.77 inches deep. Leave a little clearance under whatever you hang it from.

Only with the birds to match. Nectar sours in warm weather whatever it sits in, so a large reservoir emptied slowly means pouring more away rather than refilling less often. A busy garden makes the size pay; a quiet one does better half-full.

No. The five flower ports and the base are what a bird homes in on, and the glass is bright and translucent rather than dark. Hanging it near flowering plants is what really speeds up the first visit.

Roughly. The lower part of the glass is a clear turquoise and the line shows through it in decent light; the deeper violet at the top is harder to read. Lifting it is still the reliable check.

A rubber O-ring where the glass seats on the base, and a screw fastening that pulls the two together. Make sure the thread is clean and the ring is seated flat before you turn it over — that is the whole of it.

No brush is included. The mouth is wide, so any bottle brush reaches the inside; the base separates from the bottle and the ports come out. Hand wash in hot water, rinse well and dry before refilling.
