Description:
The Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) is a species of honeysuckle native to eastern Asia including China (northern and eastern P.R.China and Taiwan), Japan, and Korea. It is a twining vine able to climb up to 10 metres (33 ft) high or more in trees, with opposite, simple oval leaves 3ĂąÂÂ8 centimetres (1.2ĂąÂÂ3.1 in) long and 2ĂąÂÂ3 centimetres (0.79ĂąÂÂ1.2 in) broad. The flowers are double-tongued, opening white and fading to yellow, and sweetly vanilla scented. The fruit is a dark blue berry 5ĂąÂÂ8 millimetres (0.20ĂąÂÂ0.31 in) diameter containing numerous seeds. The Japanese Honeysuckle flower is of high medicinal value in traditional Chinese medicine, where it is called rĂÂn dĂ Âng tĂ©ng (Chinese: Ä¿ÂĂ„ÂÚ€; literally "winter enduring vine") or jĂ«n yĂÂn huĂ (Chinese: Ă©ÂÂĂ©ÂÂÚ±; literally "gold silver flower"). It has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and is used (often in combination with Forsythia suspensa) to dispel heat and remove toxins, including carbuncles, fevers, influenza and ulcers.
