Re: A Honeysuckle Which Berries?

Thankyou for all your advice.

Growing up with a (now estranged; or I would be picking his brains) father who was a nurseryman, I have a little gardening knowledge- it's how I earned my pocket money
So in response to the last post, maybe my question should have been written a little better. Some honeysuckles seem to have larger and more bountiful berries than others- in the past mine have produced little tiny uninspired things.
I would like to find a Lonicera which fell into the first description.

I'll look up the Lonicera Fragrantissima, and try and find the the name of the evergreen suggested (if I can).
Thankyou for the advice about planting several, this may be the key to those fat juicy berries I'm after for the birds.

(We have a mistle thrush visit the garden, and I'd like to keep encouraging him)
