Lonicera periclymenum) and other species (Osmunda regalis, Rubus sp., Ulex europaeus, Calluna vulgaris, Erica cinerea, Teucrium scorodonia, Pteridium aquilinum, Glandora prostrata).

"Adult moths are lured towards paler coloured flowers which show up at dusk such as hemp agrimony (Eupatorium cannabinum), nightscented flowers such as evening primrose (Oenothera biennis) and night-scented stock, long tubular flowers including common honeysuckle (
Lonicera periclymenum) and Verbena bonariensis, open flowers such as cosmos and bishop's weed (Ammi majus), and aquatic plants such as aromatic water mint or purple loosestrife," she says.
The scientific name is
Lonicera periclymenum. 'Lonicera' is for the 16th century German naturalist Adam Lonicer, and 'periclymenum' means 'to twine around'.
Lonicera periclymenum grows vigorously to 7m (22ft), twining round any support it encounters and producing clusters of very sweet-scented cream and red flowers in summer, followed by red berries.
