Honeysuckle
€12.95
Native Irish Honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum) is a hardy, deciduous climbing shrub, offered here as a young potted plant. Given a support to twine through, it reaches 3 to 6 m, weaving naturally through hedges, trellises, and fences. From summer into early autumn it produces beautifully scented, tubular flowers in cream, yellow, pink, and red, hugely attractive to bees, moths, and butterflies, followed by red berries that feed birds through autumn (not edible for humans). A wonderful native choice for Irish and UK wildlife gardens, cottage gardens, and scented borders.

Growing Instructions
Plant in full sun to part shade in moist, fertile, well-drained soil, with a trellis, fence, arch, or hedge for it to climb through. Water well while establishing and mulch each spring. Prune after flowering to control size and keep growth tidy, thinning congested stems to improve airflow and flowering.
