Lemon Beauty Boxleaf Honeysuckle.
I bought a plant in England that had this label on it, but it was incorrectly identified. Distinct gold margins to every leaf distinguishes this Boxleaf Honeysuckle from other cultivars. It looks so delicate with its very compact mounding habit that I tried growing it in part shade where it was not happy. Upon moving it to full sun, it took off. As it ages, the gold margins to its leaves become more pronounced. It is probably the most compact growing cultivars of this species. It is really awesome when combined with some contrasting colors and textures such as Eucomis 'Sparkling Burgundy', either in the ground or in a container. This one is a very sparse bloomer compared to the species. Plant it for its form, texture and color.
