Lonicera nitida 'Elegant' is a more compact cultivar than the species but still makes an excellent hedge. This densely packed evergreen shrub produces small, deep green leaves that cloak the long stems to create a very effective screen. With regular pruning it can even be used as an alternative to traditional Yew plants for creating formal topiary. From March to May, cream-white flowers will appear which are followed by purple-blue berries that birds will love. This shrubby Honeysuckle is easy to take care of, looks extremely neat after pruning and remains a manageable size. Height and spread: 1.8m (6') if left unpruned. Lonicera nitida 'Elegant' is a little more compact than the species, but can still be grown as a tall hedge or be used for creating topiary or low formal hedges. It is often used as an alternative to more traditional Yew or Box. The Shrubby Honeysuckle tolerates regular cutting and its small dark green leaves create a dense evergreen screen. Creamy white flowers in spring are followed by purple berries attractive to birds. Lonicera nitida 'Elegant' is easy to grow and maintain and is fast growing. Height and spread: 1.8m (6') if left unpruned. Grow Lonicera in any moist, well drained garden soil. Shrubby honeysuckles enjoy a sunny or semi-shaded position.

Live Plants

Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Dobies products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days. We are only liable for the cost of the goods as quoted on the website plus the cost of delivery if the goods are faulty.

Unlike many companies, we publish all of our reviews - good or bad - to give you, the customer, total transparency and peace of mind.
