Flowers - Honeysuckle

Honeysuckle is a perennial. I'm not sure whether you'd classify it as a bush or a flower. It does need to grow up something. It loses its leaves in the winter. These flowered in May and June, but there was a second flowering (well, a flower of two!) in August, and even a third in October. It was rather a strange year....

The impressive flowers below belong to our neighbours, but they tend to flower on our side of the fence as well, and very welcome they are! The other plant is self-seeded, and grows through our wisteria.
