HONEYSUCKLE BOOM...

 

warm Summer weather is great for some.

Honeysuckle( Lonicera) is a summer flower, proof in my garden, there was an explosion of flowers

 

Honeysuckle, a popular garden plant with highly perfumed flowers, especially in the evening.

There are climbing honeysuckles and evergreen shrubby types, which make good hedging plants.

 

Honeysuckle derives its name from the edible sweet nectar obtainable from its tubular flowers.

The name Lonicera stems from Adam Lonicer, a Renaissance botanist.

The flowers have a heavenly scent and attract pollinators into the garden...as it is magnet for wildlife - this plant provides nectar for butterflies and bees, moths, which it attracts with its nocturnal scent.

Birds also eat the seeds.

Sounds lovely in my languages,

French: Chèvrefeuille

German: Geißblatt

Flemish: Zeemtutten (LOL)

Dutch: Kamperfoelie

 

Have a good day and thank you for your visit, so very much appreciated, Magda, (*_*)
