honeysuckle

Honeysuckles (''Lonicera'', ;〔''Sunset Western Garden Book,'' 1995:606–607〕 syn. ''Caprifolium'' Mill.) are arching shrubs or twining bines in the family Caprifoliaceae, native to the Northern Hemisphere. Approximately 180 species of honeysuckle have been identified. About 100 of these species can be found in China and approximately 20 native species have been identified in Europe, 20 in India, and 20 in North America. Widely known species include ''Lonicera periclymenum'' (honeysuckle or woodbine), ''Lonicera japonica'' (Japanese honeysuckle, white honeysuckle, or Chinese honeysuckle) and ''Lonicera sempervirens'' (coral honeysuckle, trumpet honeysuckle, or woodbine honeysuckle). Hummingbirds are attracted to the flowers on some of these plants, especially ''L. sempervirens'' and ''L. ciliosa'' (orange honeysuckle). Honeysuckle gets its name because edible sweet nectar can be sucked〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3fUzHG0fqA )〕 from the flowers. The name ''Lonicera'' stems from Adam Lonicer, a Renaissance botanist.
==Description==
Most species of ''Lonicera'' are hardy twining climbers, with a large minority of shrubby habit; a handful of species (including ''Lonicera hildebrandiana'' from the Himalayan foothills and ''L. etrusca'' from the Mediterranean) are tender and can only be grown outside in subtropical zones. The leaves are opposite, simple oval, 1–10 cm long; most are deciduous but some are evergreen. Many of the species have sweetly scented, bilaterally symmetrical flowers that produce a sweet, edible nectar, and most flowers are borne in clusters of two (leading to the common name of "twinberry" for certain North American species). Both shrubby and vining sorts have strongly fibrous stems which have been used for binding and textiles. The fruit is a red, blue or black spherical or elongated berry containing several seeds; in most species the berries are mildly poisonous, but in a few (notably ''Lonicera caerulea'') they are edible and grown for home use and commerce. Most honeysuckle berries are attractive to wildlife, which has led to species such as ''L. japonica'' and ''L. maackii'' spreading invasively outside of their home ranges. Many species of ''Lonicera'' are eaten by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species — see a list of Lepidoptera that feed on honeysuckles.
