Origin and History

Honeysuckle has a rich history dating back to ancient times, where it was often used for medicinal purposes and as a symbol of love and protection. The name 'honeysuckle' is derived from the Old English 'hunigalu', meaning 'honey', and refers to the sweet nectar the flowers produce.

Application in the Garden

Honeysuckle is ideal for climbing pergolas, fences, and walls, where it can provide a lush green backdrop or a colorful accent. These plants can also be used as ground covers or in pots on terraces and balconies. Their fast growth and easy care make them an ideal choice for both novice and experienced gardeners.

Combination with Roses

The combination of honeysuckle and roses in the garden is a classic choice that is both visually and aromatically appealing. Honeysuckle brings a vertical dimension to the garden, while roses provide color and structure. Together they create a romantic setting that stimulates the senses. The sweet scent of honeysuckle in the evenings perfectly complements the rich scents of roses, creating a fragrant oasis that continues to captivate from early summer into autumn.
