Honeysuckle

The Honeysuckle should be familiar to most people as a climbing shrub often found in hedgerows and woodland as well as in gardens. It twines clockwise around other plants, and its grey-green leaves are opposite on the stems. The flowers can be seen most of the summer and are often described as trumpet shaped and creamy white to orange or pink in colour. The berries are produced in autumn and grow in clusters. They're slightly sticky and mildly poisonous, containing carotenoids.
