Bush Honeysuckle

Diervilla

Diervilla rivularis full sun

Named after a surgeon called Dierville, this small genus is native to the southeastern United States and related to Honeysuckle and Weigela.

This noteworthy upright species features red-tinged stems and striking opposite foliage, which initially imparts warm coppery bronze tones and matures into a deep green with a red midrib, beautifully offsetting delicate lemon-yellow flowers. Our Bush Honeysuckle is planted in the border next to Euphorbia ‘Red Martin’ for toasty reddish hued echoes.

Blooms July–September.

Size: 5' high x 5' wide; hardy to zone 5.

Customer Comment:

“Surfing the web for a special plant, I chanced on Digging Dog Nursery. I thought that any nursery that could create an Egyptian Gothic out of Anubis must have some pretty cool things going for it. I was right, and my first order was a pleasure. Well packed, healthy plants and extremely appealing people on the other side of the screen.”
