Ha..ha it didn't with me......its only a slender plant, hasn't really thickened up at all, but these flowers will be coming till the frosts do.....

Yes, I love honeysuckle for their late display. I did add an evergreen one this year so hopefully next year it will give me some late colour. My big yellow 'Susan' is going great guns!

That's a lovely one - never seen this before!

Have you pics of Susan Karen? I would like to see it.
It's unusual isn't it Scottish, almost Mediterranean looking....

Yes Janey - very mediterranean looking. I had 3 huge honeysuckles covering the fence in my side garden. Dug out 2 and gave them away and the other was cut right back to the ground as I needed to mend the trellis.
It's going ok this year but only has around 6 flowers.
