Lonicera pileata

Honeysuckle - Privet

Privet Honeysuckle is a beautiful glossy small evergreen groundcover shrub. Lonicera pileata often produces glowing amethyst fruits in late summer on older plants. An excellent choice for shady deer-dominated areas.

PRN Preferred: Works much better than any Cotoneaster as a groundcover. This evergreen works well in dry sites.
