Description
Hall’s Japanese honeysuckle can cover a sturdy arch, pergola, or boundary wall with twining stems and dark green, ovate leaves. Its highly fragrant, tubular flowers open white and age to buff-yellow, creating a two-tone summer display. Many leaves persist in mild winters, but cold winters can strip the vine. Glossy black berries are ornamental and should not be eaten. Give it moist but well-drained soil in partial shade or full sun, and guide new growth onto its support. In some U.S. regions it spreads aggressively, so check local invasive-plant guidance before planting.
