    Hiya WOO.

    I tried some years back to grow Honeysuckle. Every year it was the same. It would start into rapid and healthy growth, then get struck down by mildew:wallbanging:

      Hi, Freddy, mildew can be a problem for sure with Honeysuckle but I believe Lonicera Repens is supposed to be Mildew resistant.:coffee::snork:

                    Lovely pictures Woo! :) Your third picture looks like a red pink if that makes sense and should be sweetly perfumed. I love the colour of the Hollyhock, a gentle creamy yellow. I wish I could grow them but they don't like my sandy soil......oh well, we can't have everything. :doh:
