Hi all,
I am looking for a long flowering, quick growing honeysuckle. It is to grow through a cotoneaster. Whats everyones favourite variety?
Kind regards

Halliana yellow/white quick growing, lovelly smell, flowering for up to 4 months.
try Lonicera Belgica for earlier flowers followed by L.Serotina
I have a Japonica Repens and it's rampaging up the trellis!
I actually got it in Tesco last year and it's probably the most successful plant I've ever bought - it pretty much tapped me on the shoulder as I stood in the checkout line, so I took it home and put it on my brand new trellis - it seemed like fate
Another vote here for Graham Thomas - a beautiful highly scented creamy-yellow honeysuckle that carries on flowering into late autumn in this garden
