A favourite of butterflies and bees. And also of ours! The beautiful fragrance of the honeysuckle 'Celestial' (Lonicera hybrid) is so enticing. The profuse flowering of the 'Celestial' makes this climbing plant a cheerful addition to our garden or patio. But beware! This perennial plant is poisonous to humans. The flowers bloom in the summer.
The plant needs support from a rack or fence to grow. Prune the climbing plant in the spring. This way we stimulate the plant's growth. The honeysuckle loves partial shade. Give the plant extra water in dry periods.
