Lonicera fragrantissima is a winter-flowering shrub grown mainly for its strong scent rather than its foliage. Pale, creamy flowers appear along the bare stems in late winter and early spring, releasing fragrance on mild days when little else is flowering. Hardy and straightforward to grow, this honeysuckle works well in borders or near paths and entrances where its early-season perfume can be appreciated.
