I thank you for the information about this new and spectacular plant. I work for The Conard-Pyle Company in Jennersville,PA and thought I would let you know that we are growing over 2000 of these for Spring 2009, so every nursery in the mid-Atlantic and Northeastern US will have an opportunity to sell these to their customers.

Thanks again! Neil

Thank *you* for the news, Neil. I know a bunch of us are dying to get our hands on ‘Cool Splash’!

I can see why you like it with those great variegated leaves. Interesting reading the history. I’ll look forward to seeing it in your garden one of these days Nan.
Congratulations on your book award!!

Thanks so much, Kerri! I too look forward to seeing Cool Splash in my garden.

I love the variegated southern bush honeysuckle and am going to try to find a place for it in my garden.

Oh, yes! That is wonderful news about your award!

Thanks, Gail! While we’re waiting for Cool Splash, you might consider trying the straight species. I think it’s a good plant even without the variegation.
