Honeysuckle

Honeysuckles bloom from late spring through the summer. They attract hummingbirds, butterflies and bees.

Fast growing, they prefer full sun to partial shade. Give them lots of space to grow! Some varieties grow as tall as 30 feet and can be trained to climb a trellis. This one is overgrowing the butterfly garden. It's already been cut back once this spring.
I was just reading the you can take cuttings from the honeysuckle in the spring, place them in a glass of water until they start forming roots and plant them....I think I'm going to try that!

A wine bottle holds a vine with a long root.
I got this one from my awesome niece.
Thank you!
