Honeysuckle 'Scentsation'
Lonicera periclymenum
3 m       2.5 m      Hardiness zone 4   

The honeysuckle ‘Scentsation’ (Lonicera periclymenum) is a sensation with the most fragrant of the white and yellow trumpet-shaped flowers, which then mingle with decorative red fruits. This festive air with their vanilla icing scent unmatched by any other variety is invited on cakes and fruit salads, also decorating cocktails and other nectars. Their long-lasting and abundant summer flowering, with an exotic look, often resumes in full force when autumns are mild. It attracts hummingbirds who have the dream beak, like a straw to drink the sweet nectar at the bottom of the trumpet-shaped flowers.

You will have to help it climb by directing it towards a support around which it will wrap itself, otherwise it can also serve as ground cover or fall from a low wall. The honeysuckle ‘Scentsation’ likes humidity but tolerates some droughts. Resistant to powdery mildew.
