Description
Diervilla x Kodiak® ‘G2X88544’, commonly known as Orange Bush Honeysuckle, is a robust hybrid shrub celebrated for its vibrant orange flowers that bloom profusely throughout the summer months, attracting pollinators such as hummingbirds and butterflies. This deciduous shrub features a compact, mounded form with dense, dark green foliage that often takes on a warm bronze hue in the fall, adding multi-season interest to landscapes.

Its tolerance for a wide range of soil types and environmental conditions—thriving in full sun to partial shade—adds to its versatility in garden design. The Kodiak® series has been recognized in horticultural circles for its superior performance and adaptability, earning it favorable attention among landscape professionals and garden enthusiasts alike.
