Re: 4 great iPhotos of mysterious lonicera

Hello everyone,


It is very strange, as sometimes, by a combination of circumstances, it is the second time that I talk about this plant within 5 days.
We discovered it for the first time, in a nursery that we were visiting last saturday with our gardening club. We fall down in admiration in front of this nice shrub with a glaucous foliage and pink flowers that are well matched. A friend of mine looked for it in the nursery pots to buy it. There were a lot of customers because it was an "open gates" week-end, with guided tours, etc...
But the owner said to us it was out of stock, and my friend was very sad, so we went back to the parking area and, with a great surprise, the owner was looking for us with the last  pot of Lonicera korolkowii in hands. And he offered it to our friend. So, now, we hope to get some cuttings next year.

Today, we had a very marvelous walk in the garrigue with Olivier Filippi, for looking at the different cistus in flowers. The Languedoc MGS branch was very quiet at listening to Filippi's words.

Sorry we’ve had a look and don’t recognise it.
