Coral honeysuckle

Coral honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens) is blooming right now here in Southwest Florida; we have two vines with exuberant foliage and flowers. Once of the things I love about this plant is that it’s relatively easy to maintain once established. The blooms attract ruby-throated hummingbirds as well as a large variety of butterflies!
