郁香忍冬  (Woodbine Honeysuckle)

Woodbine Honeysuckle (Lonicera fragrantissima) are great shrubs for the dry climate cottage garden. They are quite drought-hardy--more so than a Buddleia, for example--and have the most divine and exquisite winter scent. The white flowers appear in the cold weather and can even be found blooming in the snow. Of course, the bees love the scent as much as I do. These shrubs are related to honeysuckle vines and, like those plants, can easily be grown from cuttings taken in the cooler, wetter months.
