Scott,

The vining honeysuckles are nice plants for sure. The customers voting with their dollars show that they are popular in my neck of the woods. Dropmore, Goldflame and Mandarin have all sold well for us although someone said that Mandarin tends to attacked by aphids moreso than the others that we sell. I ran across L. prolifera a couple of years ago, loved it, forgot about it and now it pops back up. The one that I saw seemed kind of bushy in shape. It was at some sort of test plot that I wandered into at the U of I in Champaign. Very interesting texture. Can anyone confirm if this is normal habit or perhaps a trial clone?

Thanks,
Ernie
