:: Caprifoliaceae :: LONICERA :: x brownii (sempervirens x hirsuta) :: 'Dropmore Scarlet'
  • Type of products available: 0/1/1P8

Main asset

Even if the perfume is not at the level of Japanese Honeysuckle, this variety presents the interest of flowers much more vivid, which stand out well of the foliage.

Remarks

Provide enough place for its important development. Prune in late winter to control the plant in the space devolved.

Vigorous climber deciduous to semi-evergreen, with oval-shaped large bluish green leaves, superb summer blooming in whorls of bright orange trumpets, slightly fragrant, honeycombed, followed by some red berries in autumn.
