SHOP for Lonicera Peaches and Cream
A unique new compact Honeysuckle with exotic pink and white bicolor florets make this small vine or shrub a garden focal point. The buds emerge deep magenta before opening fully to reveal the pink, white and magenta colored flowers.
Extremely fragrant, plant Lonicera Peaches and Cream adjacent to a walkway, patio seating area, outside a window or on a garden trellis. The compact habit of Peaches and Cream honeysuckle make this hardy honeysuckle ideal for training as a small flowering shrub by simply pruning back several times during the first growing season. We also found this versatile vine was ideal for cascading over rock walls or down a retaining wall creating a cascade of fragrant flowers.
Hummingbirds and butterflies will thank you for adding this new plant to your garden. Simple dead-heading of the florets after they bloom will encourage Lonicera Peaches and Cream to continue to produce fragrant, nectar-rich flowers all summer providing a habitat for hummingbirds and butterflies.
Honeysuckle vines like well-drained soil, with consistent watering throughout the growing season. Fertilize Lonicera Peaches and Cream with a balanced organic fertilizer twice a season; once in the spring then again mid-summer. For best flowering results, plant honeysuckle vines in a full sun location.

Like Peaches and Cream Lonicera, Sweet Tea Honeysuckle is a magnet for hummingbirds and butterflies, and is hardy for gardening zones 4-9.
