Box-Leaved Honeysuckle

This species of Lonicera tends to grow laterally rather than vertically but can be easily trained into a hedge structure for hedging approx 1m tall. Our measurements are for the width of the upper stem structure rather than height. View more low growing hedging plants.

Traditionally, Lonicera pileata isn't grown as a flowering or berrying hedge though it does have creamy white flowers in late spring and transluscent purple berries in autumn which are a good source of bird food. Trim in Summer and Autumn. Lonicera Pileata is suitable for shady sites, and most soil types including alkaline soil, but not wet sites.

View our evergreen hedging plants section for plants capable of growing in the most challenging growing conditions and see also our range of low growing hedging plants.

Pot grown plants are available all year round. Bare roots are only available from november to late April/early May.
