Kintzley's Ghost® honeysuckle may seem wild, but it's actually a native plant in North America. At first, it looks like any other honeysuckle with dusty green leaves. But as the season goes on, it surprises with flower buds that look like saucers and bracts that resemble eucalyptus. Plus, they attract pollinators like hummingbirds! In the fall, the flowers turn into red berries, but unlike other honeysuckles, they won't become a nuisance. With its size and changing appearances, this plant is truly a standout.
- 6-12 feet tall and 5 feet wide at maturity
- Grow in zones 4-8
- Plant in part to full sun (4-6 hours daily)
Our deciduous shrubs are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off—this is completely normal! Shedding leaves helps the plants conserve energy and prepare for the next growing season. Rest assured, your shrubs will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!
Care: Pruning is usually not needed but may be trimmed after flowering. Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid-summer. This honeysuckle is non-invasive.
