Amazing Facts About Hummingbirds and Exotic Flowers

Hummingbirds can flap their wings up to eighty times per second, allowing them to hover in place while sipping nectar from deep flowers. The bird-of-paradise plant earns its name because its bright orange and blue petals resemble the crest of a tropical bird in flight. Hummingbirds possess specialized long beaks and extendable tongues designed specifically to reach sweet nectar hidden inside tubular blooms.
