Description
Wild honeysuckle growing up a tree on a sunny June afternoon. It was hard to miss these beautiful honeysuckle flowers with their white petals, caught in the bright sunlight. There were a lot of flowers, but the sweet scent that one usually associates with honeysuckle, was hard to detect. I have always loved this plant ever since I first read about it as a child, growing in the garden of a cottage in an Enid Blyton book. I think I decided then, that when I had my own garden, I would have to have some honeysuckle. I don't have any in my current garden, but I did have for a while. A friend gave me a small honeysuckle plant, but I couldn't decide where I wanted to put it. I left it in a pot to grow bigger, until I got round to planting it. Well it ended up sitting happily in the pot for a couple of years, flowering each year. That was until one winter when I found just an empty pot where the plant had stood. One of my children had pulled it out and discarded it, thinking that it was just an old dead twig. By the time I found it, it was.
