Honeysuckle plants smell nice. It was the aroma that attracted my attention. It competes well for space and is remarkably robust.
Apparently, nectar settles in honeysuckle flower cups during the evening. Bombus smart bumble bees(correct genus) used bee intelligence to work out how to beat the struggle of entering through the narrow cup. They drill a hole in the base and upload nectar through a straw shaped probiscus. Not many people know this but I read about it here. The leaky hole they leave behind can be used by smaller less smart insects.
Buds are slim and erect to begin with. White flowers open and yellow with age, just like Presidents.
Sweet smells in the wild Kumeu reserve.
Five anthers and a stigma. This plant is hermaphrodidic.
Maximum beauty presents, then, the flower bud opens.
