What is this plant that smells like Jasmine?

Hello Members,

 

While walking came across a plant (Photographs attached) that flavors like Jasmine.

May you please share the name of the plant and where can I purchase it from.

 

Many thanks.

Re: What is this plant that smells like Jasmine?

Hi @nagumuthu

 

After a quick google search, it appears to be a Honeysuckle. A vigorous-growing species with long-tubed fragrant white flowers that attract birds.  A twining climber, honeysuckle requires support and can grow up to 30 feet. It grows well in sun or partial shade.

 

We have a couple of varieties available: 140mm Firecracker Honeysuckle - Lonicera heckrotii and 140mm Japanese Honeysuckle - Lonicera japonica you might need to check them out to see if they have the same distinct Jasmine like smell similar to the one you had seen.    

 

Please let me know if you need further information or had questions.

Hello Mitchell,

 

Thanks for search made on the plant and glad on that.

 

The link(s) on your email brings me to https://www.bunnings.com.au/our-range and stops there.

 

Searching the name of the plants on bunnings portal does not provide any results.

 

Should I approach the counter directly for the plant?

 

Thanks

M.Muthu.

@nagumuthu,

 

Yes, we would encourage you to visit your local Bunnings store and enquire in the nursery section about their range of Honeysuckle plants.
