Honeysuckle climber or shrub

What type is this please

I'm sure I was sold this as a shrub but can't remember I ask because it seems to want to grow out instead of up hugging the floor with really long stems .

 

Can anybody help.

 

I dont know i dont know what honeysuckle shrubs look like

But it looks like a few of my climbers

See im totally no use lol

 

From what I've read climbers flower in summer shrubs flower in winter and that they both like shade being a woodland plant.

I put the second picture to show what I think are flower buds or just could be new leaves.
It also says about shrubs do well in full sun my plant in the pic has been sat in the strongest part of my garden sun wise and has been doing well any HS experts on this forum.

 

Lonicera has many shrubby forms. Most of them are fairly tall and do not trail along the ground. Without flowers it is hard to id them as most of them have very similar leaf shapes.
The Winter flowering ones are forms of L. fragrantissima, but there are plenty which flower in Spring and Summer.

 

It looks like Lonicera japonica to me, so it is a climber. Those are flower buds coming through, should be quite fragrant too.

 

That sounds familiar thanks for the replies where do you recommend I place this HS in my garden it seems to do ok in full sun but from what I've read they like shade.

 

Mine are in full sun and in shade and are all fine and developing the same

 

Dips what do you grow yours up any pics please.

Wow now that's something I've never seen before looks great.
