Ualda's Garden

pink honeysuckle

Genus: Lonicera.

Species: Lonicera periclymenum.

It's under the Lilac in the back garden, John put it there many years ago but is making beautiful flowers but only a few and the leaves are ill, I think is powdery mildew, I am misting it with a solution I made ( 2 teaspoons of bicarbonate, few drops of ecover washing up liquid, 1 part milk and 3 of water)

WOW ... the leaves are looking healthy this year (2009) but is making strange looking orangy flowers.
