Lonicera fragrantissima

Lonicera fragrantissima is a very fragrant winter-flowering honeysuckle shrub that blooms for us from January to March.

Lonicera fragrantissima is a very fragrant winter-flowering honeysuckle shrub best placed where you will walk past it in winter and early spring. Our large specimen at the nursery begins blooming with small, white flowers in January and continues through March. Makes a lovely cut flower for a winter vase. Underplant with hellebores and allow a few Clematis to grow up through its branches to add colour later in the season.
