Firefly™ Nightglow™ Bush Honeysuckle

Diervilla x splendens 'El Madrigal'



Fireflies in the night sky! The Firefly™ series Nightglow™ Bush Honeysuckle (Diervilla x splendens 'El Madrigal') features dark reddish-purple foliage and yellow blooms! Upright growing and dramatically hued, it's a mix of dark burgundy, bruised purple, and dark red foliage! Creating the perfect backdrop for the tiny, bright sulfur-yellow flowers in the summer, just like Fireflies in the night!

You'll love the way the clusters of star-shaped, bright yellow, trumpet-shaped blooms stand out against the dramatic leaves! The Butterflies, native bees, and Hummingbirds adore your Firefly™ Nightglow™ because it boasts bright yellow flowers in early summer! Then in autumn, intensely red-orange fall color lights up these amazing native shrubs! Only growing 2-3 feet in height and width, Firefly™ is incredibly versatile and space-saving!

This Firefly™ Series Bush Honeysuckle, while related to the Vine and the Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), it isn't invasive. It plays well with its garden neighbors for sure! Add to that deer resistance, plus disease resistance, and it can even grow in dry shade! Combined with its long bloom time and gorgeous foliage, and you have a most excellent landscape plant! Growing 2-3' tall & wide, these vigorous and incredibly adaptable, cold-hardy shrubs thrive throughout USDA growing zones 3-7.
