Description
Vining Honeysuckle is well-suited to moist locations with average soils, and prefers full sun for at least half the day. Give this fast grower a trellis or support structure to climb and it will cover a 12 x 12' area with ease. You can also use Honeysuckle vine as a running groundcover, which is a beautiful solution for hard-to-reach areas and steep declines. Keeps blooming all summer long and overwinters reliably.
