Naturehills.com carries thousands of products including the Honeysuckle - Serotina
from the Vines family.
Honeysuckle - Serotina, Lonicera periclymenum 'Serotina', bears multitudes of spidery-looking, fuchsia-colored buds, which open into pink, sweet-smelling bugles that later fade to a creamy salmon color. It is an excellent grower, and its sumptuous flowers permeate the air with a delectable, intoxicating fragrance. You can prune this vigorous semideciduous vine to make it more shrublike, or let its bluish green foliage climb a trellis, pergola, arbor, or fence. Serotina was given an Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society in Great Britain in 1993. It grows easily in a wide variety of soil types and is not fussy about lime or acidic soils. Serotina prefers a moist, loamy soil, but will easily adapt to most situations; flowers best in full sun or partial shade. Hummingbirds love to sip on the small amounts of nectar at the base of the flowers, hence the name honeysuckle.
