I went out in Heathers back yard and found this bush
in bloom the flowers are about 3/4 inch around the center of the flower sticks out and is a pinkish red tint and smells so good.The leaf reminds me of a fig leaf. This plant was just a small plant last August.Heather and Richie have know idea of what it is.I hope someone can Id it for me as I would love it in my yard.

I think it is a " Bush Honeysuckle".
They tend to spread quite quickly, and will become quite a large shrub.
They are NOT climbers, but grow as a shrub.

We have bush honeysuckle here but it doesn't look like that. Ours have 2 tone pink blooms and a different leaf. I'm very curious to see what your plant turns out to be Glenda.
