Evergreen Shrub
Compact variety of golden box honeysuckle (Lonicera nitida 'Twiggy'). For those familiar with its cousin, Baggeson's Gold, you'll find this variety much easier to work with in smaller garden plots. Give it about two to three feet, it takes readily to pruning if you need to keep it on the small side.
