Native bush honeysuckle is a low, vigorously spreading shrub that forms an attractive mass. Its numerous yellow to pink flowers attract many bumblebees. Native bush honeysuckle has good fall color, especially in full sun. Tolerates poor, dry and thin soil, so it may do well in a tree lawn garden or on a slope.
