Twinberry Honeysuckle is a native shrub of moist western forests and stream banks whose yellow tubular flowers are pollinated by hummingbirds and bloom in pairs. The distinctive paired black berries, each sitting on showy red-purple bracts, are eaten by bears, foxes, grouse, and many songbirds. It is one of the most important berry shrubs of Pacific Northwest riparian habitats.
