Pheasant Eye

good pic jacque

I love this Shrub Irish i inherited with my garden :)

This is very nice Jacque, what is it's name?

Hi Michaella i think its called Pheasants Eye ! Not 2 sure as it was in my garden when i moved in :)

Really nice photography Jacque ! I love this shrub too. Well, I don't know if you'd call it a shrub or a perennial. We call it himalayan honeysuckle over here. Looks like you have the new cultivar with the yellow leaves called Leycesteria 'golden lanterns'. I'd read somewhere the leycesteria formosa is an heirloom plant and they used the berries to make jam a century ago. Pretty cool tidbit !

Iv also heard it called Himalayan Honeysuckle Flcrazy :)
