Honeysuckle 'Mandarin'
FamilyCaprifoliaceae
Lonicera 'Mandarin', commonly known as 'Mandarin' honeysuckle, is a deciduous climbing plant with a twining and vigorous habit, recognized for its spectacular bright orange blooms and long flowering period. Unlike highly fragrant honeysuckles, this variety is particularly prized for the intensity of its tubular mandarin-orange flowers that appear from early summer until early autumn. Highly attractive to hummingbirds and pollinators, it is an excellent choice for enlivening pergolas, fences, and trellises. Lonicera 'Mandarin' prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained, slightly fertile soil. Hardy and vigorous without being invasive, it brings verticality, vibrant color, and dynamism to Nordic residential landscapes.
