Diervilla lonicera | northern bush honeysuckle

Bush honeysuckle is an extremely adaptable deciduous shrub that is a mighty workhorse in a small garden. The small yellowish flowers offer excellent pollinator support in spring and summer, and the plants are happy to grow in almost any light and soil conditions. In sunny spots, new leaves emerge with a reddish hue that returns later in fall. The rich green foliage remains healthy all summer, growing on branches that reach 2-3’ tall and hold a mounded form. Excellent for difficult, dry sites in part shade, but tolerates most soils including occasional flooding.
