The Northern Bush Honeysuckle is a small, dense, deciduous shrub. The trumpet-like yellow flowers bloom late spring to early summer. Dark green leaves turn yellow then red in the fall. The flower nectar has a sweet honey taste that can be sucked out of the flower.

Because of its aggressive suckering habit, the Northern Bush Honeysuckle makes a great hedge, shrub border, or thicket in a woodland garden.

The Morden Centennial Rose is a showy flowering shrub with hot pink double-flowered blooms and yellow centers. This shrub has dark green and glossy foliage, which turns yellow in the later fall months and exhibits bright red rose hips.

The Morden Centennial Rose is a popular variety due to its high disease resistance and brilliant color.
