Hallo Sam,
thank you, your links have been very interesting!

In Germany (cold zone 6 +7), Lonicera is also becoming more popular.
We have some of your "Blue..." varieties, but we have also e.g. six own
and protected varieties from Lonicera caerulea var. kamtschatica:

"Fialka"
"Morena"
"Amur"
"Altai"
"Maistar"
"Mailon"
This speaks for the growing importance...

ciao
Hans
