I agree with Bay, very pretty honeysuckle! We have the wild, yellow/white honeysuckle here. DH is always trying to get rid of it. I also have trumpet vine. I have one trained as a tall bush. It's growing up one of my plant hooks. I keep it trimmed so it doesn't get out of hand. I hang my hummingbird feeders under it. The shade helps keep the sugar water from going sour so fast.

Bay that was a closeup of the flowers, here's another picture of where it is planted, it's shoved in the corner against a fence and the neighbors carport along with an early flowering clematis. These are both old varieties.

The earlier flowering one, L. periclymenum 'belgica', the flowers are a softer color but still scented.

I have a 6 ft. high stockade type fence around our back yard, built to keep the doberman in. Not very attractive so I planted vines, vines, and more vines :).

I have one more it's a rare heirloom just brought back into cultivation a few years back, It's being persnickty, hasn't quite taken hold yet, it doesn't have any scent but look at those bracks.

Ghost honeysuckle? I love it!

The honeysuckle growing on your fence is the prettiest I have ever seen!
