Description
John Clayton Honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens ‘John Clayton’) Perk up your habitat garden with our native honeysuckle vine. Pale orange to yellow flowers are pollinator favorites - hummingbirds and butterflies love them! A repeat bloomer, ‘John Clayton’ will keep you in blossoms from early summer through fall. Drought tolerant once established, plant in a full sun to part shade location, and water moderately to establish. Prune as needed, its summer berries are bird favorites too. Honeysuckle ‘John Clayton’ was originally found on the grounds of a 17th-century church in Virginia, and is named after a colonial botanist. (8-10' tall x 3-5' wide).

A 5"" plant!
"Plant came in 5"" pot in mail. I was skeptical but today it's about to grow over the house. Excellent plant. Thanks."
Jury is still out about a reorder.
"Plant budded out and was green all year, but it didn't get over 1 ft. tall and didn't bloom. It just sat there. Had a very unusual summer. Hot and dry in June and July, then received a years equivalent rainfall in August and September."
Blooming!
"It is still blooming heavily in October."
Can't say enough good things!
"I simply CANNOT stop talking about all the virtues of this amazing and beautiful honeysuckle variety! First, please allow me to set the stage for you: Alkaline soil Cold and heat extremes Low humidity Severe winds Infrequent rainfall Gophers, deer and rabbits Now, let me tell you that I planted several of these lonicera about the property last fall, in both sun and shade settings, in containers and in the ground. Every. Single. One stayed evergreen, is growing and blooming happily! I did not amend the soil. Watering has been sporadic, as has been our weather and temperatures. I've got them twining up the dead branches of other bushes that didn't survive transplant, using the deceased as a frame for the new and living! Soon those will appear as evergreen bushes. I also have in containers on the porch to cover the hot deck railing. And along stone and stucco walls. This is a VERY versatile plant and I am eager to add even more."
