Lonicera japonica ‘Aureoreticulata’
Yellow-net Honeysuckle |

This is a well-behaved climbing honeysuckle, unlike some of the more vigorous selections. Highly regarded for its beautiful display of small green leaves, brightly veined with golden-yellow. May be grown on a pole or trellis, or allowed to scramble as a groundcover. Fragrant white flowers appear in early summer. Plants benefit from a hard pruning every 2 to 3 years, in order to produce the best foliage display and keep a bushy habit. Likes a moist spot.
