Hi, Dianne, glad you liked the picture. I think this is a marvelous shrub, nothing seems to bother it, and the deer have never touched it. The latin name is--- hope I spell this correctly--Lonicera fragrantissima. If you have the room for something this big, I highly recommend it. I see you are Zone 9a and depending on the weather, could easily be evergreen in your climate. It is semi-evergreen for us through the winter.
