The one thing about a honeysuckle that cannot be discerned from a photo is the OVERPOWERING fragrance of the thing! I know you are a devoted *flower floozie* so I am sure its scent would have you swooning. When I open the back door in the mornings to walk out with my cuppa, I am literally engulfed in its sweetness....oh yes, you MUST plant one!Sweetpeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08000313813136860758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434342308817990711.post-34856239501653445232012-06-24T10:10:05.905-07:002012-06-24T10:10:05.905-07:00...the number of times a fray has encouraged me to......the number of times a fray has encouraged me to stitch!

Burn bans (yay) are everywhere. That's good for us since Terry has COPD. Anyway, I ALWAYS wanted a honeysuckle and tried several times from a start. Then one day last year, one miraculously appeared on our privacy fence line by our pond. I didn't even realize it was honeysuckle. Terry waters that pond area everyday for hours on a time. Its the only way we can keep Junior (dog) from digging for moles. The plants and weeds are a jungle out there. I won't weed because the bluebirds have another brood in the box. ....
