Hi, it’s Jenny from My Garden Nursery!
This week, we’re climbing up into the world of sweet-scented Lonicera…better known as honeysuckle!
These fragrant climbers aren’t just pretty, they’re pollinator magnets and garden showstoppers.
First is Goldflame, a star performer with deep pink buds that open to gold and yellow blooms and a fragrance that will stop you in your tracks.
Next, Harlequin! This one is fancy with cream-edged green leaves and delicate pink flowers; a painter’s palate on a trellis. It’s perfect for adding a touch of elegance.
And, for bold, tropical vibes, try Mandarin, with striking orange blooms that hummingbirds can’t resist.
All three of these varieties thrive in full-sun to part-shade, climb with enthusiasm, and bloom from late spring through summer.
Need help picking the right one or getting it to thrive, swing by My Garden Nursery and get help from the gardening experts like Nancy and Cheryl!
