L. japonica halliana. Hall’s Japanese Honeysuckle. This 
is thoroughly at home in the woods, along hedge-rows 
and road-banks where the birds scatter the seed about 
and it comes up in patches. The foliage remains green 
until midwinter, or if grown on the ground, until spring. 
The hummingbirds and children like the honey, and 
you will like the fragrance in June and autumn. It is 
often the cheapest thing to cover a bank, where they 
may be mixed with climbing roses, Virginia creeper, 
and low shrubs. The ability of Japanese Honeysuckle to 
take complete possession of the ground results in 
economy of maintenance.
