http://www.romencegardens.com/... two years ago. I was impressed with the vine they sent it was good sized not some wimpy little sprout.

The other one I have has been here for years it is Dropmore Scarlet here is a description

I could not say one is better than the other since one is just going on it's third year. Mine never have the blooms dry up. Just google honeysuckle vines to see some of the cultivars, then you can see what is hardy and the pictures will give you sample of what may appeal to you. @Newyorkrita has more honeysuckles she could tell which ones she likes.


My very favorite trumpet honeysuckle is Major Wheeler! Very favorite my far. Another good one is Blanche Sandman and if you like yellow, the yellow trumpet John Clayton is marvelous!

In the normal flowered honeysuckles I love the late Dutch Honeysuckles such as Seritona. Also like a honeysuckle called Pink Lemonade.
