Lonicera japonica is a scrambling evergreen shrub with fragrant white flowers (turning yellow with age) (Staples & Herbst 2005). Lonicera japonica is widely established in the eastern continental U.S., and is "sparingly naturalized" in several wet areas in Hawaii. The clones grown in Hawaii are said by some not to set fruit, but there are some reports of fruiting plants on Oahu and Kauai (Staples & Herbst 2005). Lonicera japonica is native to Japan, Korea, and China.
