My grandparents had a huge honeysuckle vine on their back fence, and I have the fondest memories of standing amid the wonderful fragrance with my grandfather, carefully pinching off the ends of the flowers and slowly pulling out the pistils (?) to take a sip - heavenly!
The slope behind our house is covered with honeysuckle vine. It smells heavenly.
...and tastes good, too!
