Winter flowering honeysuckles are a delight to have in the garden, and Lonicera x purpusii ‘Winter Beauty’ is one of the finest varieties you will find available – it even holds the Award of Garden Merit from the RHS as recognition for its dependable and delightful performance in the garden. Clusters of beautifully scented, creamy-white tubular flowers are borne on bare stems from December through to March - a time when there is often little interest in the garden. Versatile enough to be planted in containers, raised beds and wildlife gardens making it easy to ensure it is located where you can enjoy its delicious, sweet fragrance and watch the early bumblebees bobbing from bloom to bloom. Allow this hardy (H6) shrub plenty of space to spread in your garden; perhaps against a wall or up through a tree where it will reach an eventual height of 2m, and a spread of up to 2.5m. A sunny location is best, although Lonicera purpusii x ‘Winter Beauty’ will tolerate a little shade and is happiest in moist, well-drained soil of any type. As flowers fade, fresh green foliage appears – lasting until November time.
