Native to North America, Northern Bush Honeysuckle (Diervilla lonicera) is a small, mound-shaped, deciduous shrub to 3 ft. Exfoliating bark reveals orange inner bark. Dark-green leaves change from yellow to red in autumn. Clusters of small, bell-shaped flowers are yellow-green at first, becoming orange or purplish-red. Makes a great border or hedge.
