Lonicera pileata Details

Lonicera pileata, commonly known as the Box Leaved Honeysuckle, is a low growing shrub grown for both its foliage and flowers. The small and glossy green leaves are held on sprawling branches and are complemented with masses of small, white flowers in spring which result in purple berries. It typically grows to 1 m tall and 2.5 m wide, performing best when positioned in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site. It will tolerate frost, cool climates, coastal conditions, and dry periods. Lonicera pileata is often used as a groundcover or mass planted on a bank. It also suits being planted beside a path where it can spill across or being included in a mixed planting or border.
