Shrub honeysuckle 'Arnold Red'
FamilyCaprifoliaceae
Lonicera × tatarica 'Arnold Red', known as Arnold Red Tartarian Honeysuckle, is a vigorous deciduous shrub prized for its abundant flowering and great hardiness. This variety forms a dense, rounded bush that easily integrates into informal hedges, shrub borders, and visual screens. In spring, the shrub is covered with a multitude of brilliant rosy-red tubular flowers that attract pollinators and add a vibrant touch to the garden. After flowering, small, shiny red berries appear and are appreciated by birds, adding extra decorative interest during the summer. Its slightly matte medium green foliage creates a beautiful mass of greenery and serves as a backdrop for the colorful flowers. Very hardy and easy to cultivate, this honeysuckle tolerates ordinary soils and cold climatic conditions well.
