Diervilla

Common Name: Dwarf Bush Honeysuckle

Diervilla, commonly know as Dwarf Bush Honeysuckle, is a deciduous shrub that is great for dry, shaded areas.  While not a true honeysuckle, the "honeysuckle-like" yellow flowers bloom all summer. Use for naturalizing or erosion control on a hillside where plants can spread to form colonies.
