Description: Honeysuckle is a climbing or shrubby perennial plant native to Europe, Asia, and North America, known for its twining stems, oval green leaves, and tubular, paired flowers that bloom from late spring through summer. The flowers are typically creamy white, yellow, or pale pink and release a light, sweet fragrance, especially in warm weather. Blossoms are harvested when fully open to capture their natural shape, colour, and aroma.
After harvesting, the flowers are gently cleaned to remove stems, leaves, and debris. They are then dried using controlled low-temperature methods to preserve their delicate tubular form, pale colour, and light floral fragrance. The dried blossoms retain their recognizable structure, making them visually attractive and botanically identifiable.
Once dried, the flowers are sorted to remove broken pieces, dust, and discoloured material, resulting in a uniform, free-flowing floral ingredient with consistent size and appearance. This careful processing ensures the flowers store well and blend evenly with other botanicals.
Uses: Honeysuckle Flowers are used in tea-style infusions, herbal and botanical blends, beverage bases, culinary preparations, decorative floral displays, craft projects, cosmetic formulations, potpourri-style mixtures, and educational herb collections. Their delicate appearance, light aroma, and soft colour make them suitable for blending into floral mixtures, infused beverages, and creative applications where visual appeal and botanical character are desired.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
