Due to the winter weather, orders from these states will ship in the spring, April to May: CA, CO, IA, ID, KS, ME, MI, MN, MT, ND, NE, NH, NV, OR, SD, UT, VT, WA, WI, WY. And due to the extreme cold and wind which we experienced through the Christmas holidays of December 2022, many Osmanthus varieties won't be shipped until we are assured there is no cold damage. This may be as late as April or May, 2023. We may choose to delay shipping other plants as well.

Twiggy Boxleaf Honeysuckle. This species of Honeysuckle has always been one of my favorite small shrubs because of its fine foliage and irregular cascading growth habit. Easily cultivated and so far deer have not touched it. I always say that with some reservations. In the Deep South, it is completely evergreen, but further north, it might be slightly deciduous. When grown in sun, 'Twiggy' has distinctly golden yellow foliage, but the more shade it is given the leaves turn chartreuse and then green in more dense shade. Although it grows quite well in some shade. This selection seems to mature at around 2' high by 2' across, even though a similar looking cultivar 'Baggeson's Gold' is reported to reach 8'. Thus 'Twiggy' is a much more ideal selection for the home garden.
