Question
I was sure this was Lonicera canadensis but now wonder if it is L. villosa. Found on one of our brooks and a piece taken to another brook, where we now have 5 plants (they did that all on their own). May 14, 2017 Barton, VT (northeast VT) Thank you!
Answer
Dear meeyauw@gmail.com, your plant is Lonicera canadensis. Lonicera villosa has united ovaries and lacks the short nectar spur shown in your images. Wonderful plant--thank you for sharing your images.
