An evergreen honeysuckle...the bees love it, but sadly, it has no scent.
Comments on this photo
They are quite pretty when you look at them up close...but not showy like other honeysuckles. I shall keep it for the bees, and for the evergreen foliage.:)

They are very valuable to the wildlife, and generally do well. I have an old Halliana - not very spectacular, and sometimes gets a bit mildewed, or suffers from what I call "early Autumn", but the bees love it.

I used to have one of those and it was amazing...the scent...incredible! I lost it in winter 2010.

Mine is down the garden, just at the entrance to the wild patch, so I don't really get the benefit of the scent except when I'm down there. I just love the scent of honeysuckle, especially in the evening.

What a great pity, still, if 'the golden ones' love it that has to be good!
