Ich dank Dir, Dag - dann ändere ich's mal :).

Hallo Lars, henryi wird höher als acuminata und bei henryi steht, daß die Triebe behaart sind. Bei acuminata weiss ich davon nichts, kann aber sein. Henryi kommt aus China, acuminata aus dem Himalaya. Henryi ist immergrün, acuminata gilt als "halbimmergrün". Welches es jetzt genau ist sieht man wohl am besten in der Blüte. Henryi hat kleine, meist paarweise rötlich-gelbe Blüten und acuminata grössere cremgelbe Blütenquirle.

Thanks a lot, Dag - you know em all, right? :) Awesome. But one thing: I found a different scientific name for it (Lonicera acuminata). Is it a synonym of your suggestion?
