Honeysuckle is a garden plant, great for summer scent, and a lovely way to brighten up a dull wall or fence. This honeysuckle is a dwarf variety making it ideal for a smaller garden or patio.
These patio honeysuckles are happiest either in full sun or partial shade, planted out in the garden or in a pot on a patio. They are fairly hardy but will do best in a sheltered position.
Whilst in a pot, your Honeysuckle will need to be watered regularly. Water thoroughly from the top every couple of days and let the excess drain away during the day. You may want to add an ordinary house plant feed to the water every week or so to help your plant continue flowering.
If planting out, your honeysuckle’s roots should be kept cool and planted deep and the new shoots should grow freely towards the light. The cooler the roots, the longer the flowers will last.
Prune lightly after flowering for the best show next year. Honeysuckle do well in a range of soils but do try and protect the roots from frost by planting near the house or by bringing the pot into a more sheltered spot in the winter.
These Honeysuckles are deciduous and so will lose all their leaves in autumn but will then put on fresh new foliage in the spring.
In late summer - early autumn, these honeysuckle grow lots of orange/red berries that are loved by birds.
