It's just sad

We're in Central Florida and haven't had a hard freeze in years. My wife insisted we get some flowers to brighten up the now bleak landscape.
What bees and butterflies survived have been going after the plants as soon as the flower pots it the ground. These little critters are starving.
Please mix up some sugar water (1:1) and set it e very shallow trays/dishes to help them get through this.
tnx
