The care secret that transformed my Honeysuckle

I'd had Honeysuckle for about eight months with acceptable but unremarkable results. Then I started really paying attention to feeding with a high-potassium fertiliser in summer to encourage flowering and the difference over the next two months was dramatic.

dramatic seasonal transformations from bare stems to full cover became much more pronounced. The plant in a house wall with appropriate fixings for support now looks like a completely different specimen. autumn foliage colour on deciduous species before leaf fall confirmed that I'd finally unlocked what this plant can do. slow establishment in the first season before taking off has been less of a problem since I got the overall conditions right. If your Honeysuckle is underwhelming, look at feeding with a high-potassium fertiliser in summer to encourage flowering first.
