Box Honeysuckle 'Thunderbolt®'
Lonicera nitida 'Golden Glow'
Thunderbolt® is a variety of box honeysuckle with chartreuse foliage, an interesting growth habit, and dense branching. It makes a great boxwood replacement in areas with morning sun and afternoon shade.
Thunderbolt® grows best in part sun; too much light can burn the leaves, too little will leave the plant sparse and thin. It prefers well-drained, somewhat moist soil and will suffer in heavy, boggy soil.
Seasonal Availability: Typically available June through August, depending on suppliers availability.
