    Very true!! This is a wonderful shot. I love honeysuckle too. Would you believe my father hated the smell of it? We would be driving down a country lane in early summer and he would close all the windows!

    Heaven... yes, either honeysuckle or wisteria! I have to stop mowing and inhale whenever I pass our wisteria in bloom! Neat SP, Regenia!! You are in a league with Andrea and Ann on these!!

    I agree that honeysuckle has a wonderfully sweet scent that makes the world a better place. A very nice sp, Regenia. You do wonderful work.

    Great SP! But the true reward is eating the "honey" as a kid we spent many hours sitting there romoving the stems to suck the "honey" out. we didn't bother to smell them just to eat them! Makesw me want to grow one just to share the experience with my children. Thanks for making me remember those times!

    The video was a wonderful end to a long day. Remembered how many times I saw the movie when it originally came out!! And I still remembered all the words!!
    Honeysuckle....ah the heady smell. I too would pull the stamens out and suck the honeydew, also would do the same on the purple clover! Beautiful SP Regenia!
