Deer resistant foliage and bee magnet blooms.
A Bloomin' Easy® variety, Diervilla Nightglow™ (Bush Honeysuckle).
The dark burgundy plum foliage and bright yellow flowers of this bush proves once and for all that opposites really do attract. From spring into fall this beauty sets our little blossoms that are warmly yellow as a harvest moon. Butterflies and bees adore the flowers almost as much as gardeners appreciate its richly colorful foliage. The shades of chocolate, maroon, and deep purple really stand out in a sea of greenery and the colors become even more intense as the season fades. Best of all this perennial is native to the US so not only will it attract native pollinators, but it won't run amok like many invasive species out there. Along with its good looks and tame personality, this diervilla is also quite deer-resistant and tolerant of dry terrain and dense clay soil. Grow this gorgeous and tough-as-nails plant and you're sure to be impressed year after year.
