Honeysuckle ~ Nature Tuesday

Japanese Honeysuckle continues to bloom on my fence. Hummingbirds enjoy the blooms filled with fragrant nectar. Butterflies will be here soon to enjoy as well. These blooms always take me back to my childhood. I would pick bouquets and take them to my Mother.

These blooms are always a favorite to see and smell in my garden. Sharing with today’s Nature Tuesday challenge.

  1. we had two honeysuckle fences when I was a kid. The first one, in a house we lived in for 5 years. The second was on the farm.

    Dad moved to bamboo later!

  2. I love hummingbirds. Sunflowers take me back to my childhood. We had several planted next to the driveway; and I and my friends used to stand there and eat the ripe seeds from the flowers.

    • Thank my dear friend Albert. They smell absolutely wonderful as well.

      Plumeria is stunning. I had a friend in Florida once that had one growing. It was lovely.

  3. These flowers are really special, dear friend … if I tell you that I did not care about flowers, I’ve learned a lot from Virilya

  4. Honeysuckle has a beautiful aroma when in bloom. … The flowers have a sweet nectar that is delicious, but that is the only part of the plant you should eat. The berries are poisonous
