Honeysuckle White Flower

€6,00

Honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum)

Discover the beauty of the Honeysuckle here with white Flowers. These arching shrubs and twining vines in the Lonicera genus offer a fragrant and delicate appearance, making for a stunning addition to any garden. With its elegant and sweet-smelling blooms, this flower is sure to bring joy and a wonderful evening scent to your outdoor space.

Honeysuckles name is derived from a 100 year old tradition of sucking its nectar, giving it its distinct name. Experience the sweet taste and nostalgic charm of the honeysuckle flower with every blossom.  To get to the nectar, you pull on the stem at the bottom of the flower. This draws out the style, which creates a bead of nectar for you to taste. You can also use honeysuckle at the dinner table, as long as you are careful to get edible varieties. You can add flowers to salads or make them into jelly, for instance. Some types even have edible berries, but you need to be especially careful, as some honeysuckle berries are toxic. 

Medicinal uses

Honeysuckle is used for digestive disorders including pain and swelling (inflammation) of the small intestine (enteritis) and dysentery; upper respiratory tract infections including colds, influenza, swine flu, and pneumonia; other viral and bacterial infections; swelling of the brain (encephalitis); fever; boils; and sores. Honeysuckle is also used for urinary disorders, headache, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and cancer. Some people use it to promote sweating, as a laxative, to counteract poisoning, and for birth control.

Honeysuckle is sometimes applied to the skin for inflammation and itching, and to kill germs.
