“In late June, the unkept hedges are in the fullness of their midsummer beauty. After sunset the fragrance of the honeysuckle is almost too much…the honeysuckle is indeed first among the “melancholy flowers” that give out their fragrance by night.
In the daytime, when the smell is faint, the pale sickly blossoms are hardly noticed even when they are seen in masses and drape the hedges…”
- W. H. Hudson
