Fragrant Winter Honeysuckle Shrub, Lonicera fragrantissima Seeds

Hardy, Adaptable, Easy to Grow, Fast Growth, Fragrant Flowering Shrub, Ornamental Fruit, Attracts Birds, Cold, Heat and Drought Tolerant

Winter Honeysuckle is a shrub, not a vine, but it has those familiar honeysuckle flowers and that sweet honeysuckle scent. Winter Honeysuckle grows 6 to 10 feet tall and its irregular, tangled branches form a twisted labyrinth as much as 6 to 10 feet across.

The leaves are nearly evergreen in the South but deciduous in cooler climates. The leaves are borne in opposing pairs along the slender, arching stems.

Flowering begins in late winter and lasts for several weeks, filling the air with fragrance when nothing else is blooming. The flowers are extremely abundant, creamy white, about a half inch long, and arranged in pairs in the leaf axils. The flowers are followed by small red berries that are attractive to birds.
