Dropmore Scarlet Honeysuckle

Honeysuckle ? ... I have two growing over the stockade fence. The golden yellow shade.

Superb colour.
A lovely photograph.

I have this honeysuckle as well Lori. The color is striking but it is true the wonderful scent is not there.

Awesome color, also a wonderful plant. Mine starts to bloom in March and blooms thru Sept. It's the hummingbirds favorite, not the mention main food source in my yard.

Honeysuckle wow i would never have guessed it 2b one of those Lori What a Beauty

I guess that I will have to get some honeysuckle growing in my yard.

Hi Talljim...honeysuckle for sure if you have, or want to attract, hummingbirds...I'm going to look for the scented honeysuckle.and plant them close together...Another hardy plant that has an amazing scent is Amur Maple...It's blossoms are lime green...and most would not know it was blooming until the amazing scent wafts in and they start looking around for a lilac or a honeysuckle...it smells wonderful and the bees add a sound dimension....it sounds like a chorus warming up...different bees...different pitch...the song of spring...

hummingbirds wonderful.

Thanks Marguerite...it's been a while since I was back to this pic!... Do you have hummers, Jane?

Not flying about in the wild no but we do have them at EXSOTIC butterflie enclosure at zoo`s :)
