Lonicera subaequalis

Lonicera  subaequalis was collected by Mikinori Ogisu in Sichuan under his number Ogisu 93.329 and is slowly making its way into our gardens in the UK once people realized that it is hardy and that given good growing conditions (a wind sheltered position that does not dry out in summer) it produces great leaves of a good size as well as scented flowers. This species sadly has a summer dormancy and can look quite manky by the late summer.
