A new Honeysuckle cultivar with a compact growth habit and a long (June to October) and profuse flowering period. Orange-scarlet flowers with yellow anthers. The stems twine round supports. It produces 0.5-1 m of annual growth and attains a height of 1.5-2 m. Tolerates moderately fertile soil as long as it’s not too dry or acid. In May it’s often subject to attack of aphids, especially when grown in a dry site or in full sun. Particularly useful for small gardens and all kinds of supports.
