Not a true honeysuckle, this small native, densely branched, suckering shrub is noted for its yellow trumpet-shaped flowers, dark green leaves and fall color. Flowers bloom in late spring to early summer. Full sun to part shade; dry to medium moisture in well-drained soil. Attracts hummingbirds and butterflies.
A very large shrub that is as broad as it is tall. Found on wet sites and riverbanks but has proved adaptable to the urban garden. Flowers are white, one to three inches in diameter, flat-topped corymbs. Birds devour the shining, blue fruit. Full to part sun. Fall color is reddish purple.
A fall-blooming, deciduous shrub that is native to woodlands, forest margins and stream banks. It typically grows 15-20’ tall with a similar spread in cultivation. Clusters of fragrant bright yellow flowers, each with four crinkly, ribbon-shaped petals, appear along the branches from October to December, usually after leaf drop but sometimes at the time of fall color. Fertilized flowers will form fruit over a long period extending through winter and into the following growing season. Fruits are greenish seed capsules that become woody with age and mature to light brown. Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. Best flowering in full sun. Prefers moist, acidic, organically rich soils. Tolerates heavy clay soils.
A tough shrub that is sun and shade tolerant, grows in wet or dry soils, and grows in a variety of soil types. It has white flowers in May that turn to white fruit on red panicles, that birds relish in the fall. Will spread to form thickets if root suckers are not removed. Fall color is a dusky purplish red. Host for many larval butterfly species. Deer resistant.
White corymbs bloom in June and July. Best grown in medium moisture, well-drained soil in part shade. Flowers make lovely dried arrangements. Will require watering during dry weather.
