The Only Plant I’m Adding to My Front Yard in April For an Instant (and Long-Term) Boost – it's Fragrant, Evergreen, and Attracts Hummingbirds

Honeysuckle in flower.

Sometimes we undervalue our front gardens, when in reality they're the first impression of passersby, they represent us on our street, and they greet our guests upon arrival. That's why I'm pouring more effort into creating an oasis in my front yard this spring, and there's just one special plant I'm adding to bring year-round greenery, deliciously fragrant flowers, and to attract wildlife: honeysuckle.

More specifically, the type of honeysuckle of I'm adding to my front yard this spring is an evergreen honeysuckle vine. These climbing plants can make your front yard smell nice, offer vertical interest against a trellis, and they retain their leaves year-round so I can have confidence my front yard won't look bare in winter.
