Yes, I can smell the scent here in my kitchen; it is just the memory of 21 years living in this village where we would daily pass Honeysuckle along the 800 yards between village and Riverside, our previous house. <BR/><BR/>Smell can do strange things to memories and to our mind in general. <BR/>Rather than severe cold like real snow and frost, our area is just covered in Yoke,https://www.blogger.com/profile/02596190126355462132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1447176412927493914.post-91156018478557619012008-11-30T05:23:00.000-08:002008-11-30T05:23:00.000-08:00Hi Yoke, I too have flowers on my honeysuckle, alb...Hi Yoke, I too have flowers on my honeysuckle, albeit in a sheltered part of the garden and a cultivated species.

It didn't really flower at all this summer, probably because it was only planted recently and has taken its time to get rooted.<BR/><BR/>You'll be surprised at the flowers still going.
