Growing Zones 4-9
Heavenly scent and buttery blooms for weeks! The Scentsation Honeysuckle Vine (Lonicera periclymenum 'Scentsation') from Proven Winners® ColorChoice® is hands down the most fragrant Honeysuckle Vine you will ever grow! The name really says it all! It is truly scent-sational!
This hardy vine gets its great scent not from just the single flowers, but from the sheer amount of flowers it produces! The beautiful white and yellow trumpet clusters just keep blooming on this vine in waves all summer and into the fall. Each flower has its own individually strong aroma, but together it's like a perfume store exploded in your garden.
The flowers are butter-yellow and super showy. Butterflies and Hummingbirds fall all over themselves to get to this great vine! Adapting to any style garden, these tame vines fill your landscape with color quickly! The long-lasting blooms are even suitable for indoor floral arrangements, filling your bouquets with sweet-smelling blooms.
Scentsation was originally bred in Herefordshire, England, and is hardy to -20 to -30 degrees Fahrenheit! It thrives in full sun, but does well in light shade, too, especially in the hottest areas of USDA hardiness zones 4-9.
Planting and Application:
Make sure you give this big boy plenty of room to stretch out! It needs a big trellis, wall, fence or large sturdy support, but once it goes, watch out! You'll quickly gain shade, space-saving privacy, and fragrance anywhere Scentsation is planted! Reaching near full height in a single growing season, this type of Honeysuckle is an amazing grower!
Despite being a fast-growing climbing vine, it won't get into trouble in the landscape, Scentsation will ramble up trellis, fences, and any place you encourage it to do so! A delicious blend of white and creamy lemony-yellow, whimsical flowers smother this vigorous vine of vibrant green as it twists and turns around your garden supports.
Fantastic growing up the columns of your pergolas and gazebos. No pollinator garden or Cottage Garden worth its salt should be without something to attract butterflies and other visitors!
The Scentsation Honeysuckle would create a dramatic effect climbing a trellis or your front porch rail. Filling an area with deep blue-green foliage and bright blooms, these even work amazingly well in containers and act as both the upright thriller and a flowing spiller.
Lovely climbing over fences and hiding unsightly views while enhancing your own! These act as semi-evergreen in warmer growing zones and provide lush backdrop plants among your beds and borders or as a backdrop to a breakfast bistro set, or a garden bench.
Not only does Scentsation look and smell good all growing season, but it's a functional part of the landscape too! Beautifully spilling over retaining walls and rambling over hardscapes as an informal groundcover or erosion control. This vigorous vine can be trained into a sprawling, cascading shrub or grown without support so it trails along the ground like living mulch or a flowering groundcover. It's so adaptable to many conditions and very easy to manage!
- White & Buttery, Lemony-Yellow Fanciful Flower Clusters
- Amazing Honeysuckle Scent!
- Loved by Butterflies & Hummingbirds
- Incredible Fragrant Cut Flowers
- Long-Lasting Non-Stop Blooms All Growing Season
- Great Vertical Coverage, Containers, Spillers & Focal Points
#ProPlantTips for Care:
These non-invasive albeit vigorous vines are easy to grow, and resistant to powdery mildew, Honeysuckle even tolerates some drought, plus they are deer-resistant and extremely hardy! Just provide good air circulation and water to keep these going strong all summer!
Loving the full sun, these are tolerant of partial sun, especially when planted in hotter climates, appreciating afternoon shade as relief from the summer sun. Not particular about soil type, Honeysuckle Vines loves any well-drained soil that ranges from acidic to alkaline. Highly pest and disease-resistant and very adaptable.
Flowering the best in average moisture, Scentsation is very drought tolerant once established. Extremely easy-care and low maintenance, these won't need pruning but are highly conducive to pruning. These vines bloom on new growth, so prune early spring before they begin to grow if needed.
Take care when applying lawn fertilizers near flowering shrubs. These high-nitrogen formulas are designed to produce foliage, but will not support flower development. Instead, apply an all-purpose fertilizer for blooming plants in early spring. Reapply in mid-summer, following label directions for application rates. Or you can apply a 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist mulch and compost around the base of your Honeysuckle to keep it happy!
