Bracted Honeysuckle is a shade loving shrub that is distinguishable from other honeysuckles by its square stem and pointed leaves. Native to most of North America, this honeysuckle is found along swamps, rivers, riparian zones and moist wooded areas.
If you have a erosion control project in mind, consider Bracted Honeysuckle.
Peking Lilac is a small, deciduous shrub. This robust species is not as fragrant as Common Lilac, but it makes up for it with its large clusters of beautiful white flowers in the spring.
Perfect for any yard, Peking Lilac does not sucker, seldom suffers from disease, and requires little pruning.
Note: This species is currently unavailable. Grow your own using Peking Lilac seeds at SeedTime.ca.
