Features
Fragrant white flowers in early spring before the leaves emerge; blue green leaves (leaves are semi-evergreen in southern states); red berries in summer.
Culture
Full sun to partial shade; moist, well drained soils are best; but tolerates dry sites; tolerates alkaline soil.
Notes
All honeysuckle shrubs require annual pruning to keep them in good shape and at a good size. They can tolerate very heavy pruning. Many honeysuckles are considered weedy, but Winter Honeysuckle does not present this problem.
