Monrovia® Goldflame Honeysuckle is a vigorous semi-evergreen shrub with twining spreading stems and blue-green foliage. Deep pink buds open to clusters of extremely fragrant tube-like flowers that keep the pink backs with golden yellow faces that fade to cream. The blooms start heavy in early summer and has sparser blooms into fall on new wood. Grows best in the south with the roots in part sun and moist well-drained soil. Goldflame is highly disease resistant and can be trained into a mounded shrub form of 4-6ft.
