When To Prune Honeysuckle.
Honeysuckle is generally a good grower.If it is an early flowering kind it should be pruned after flowering so that it has the whole summer to grow next year’s flowering shoots.Late flowering honeysuckles can be pruned hard early spring to make the growth that it is going to flower on this season. When pruning prune back to a pair of buds.Most honeysuckles are quite resilient and will tolerate a wide range of conditions,however in its native habitat it often wants to have its head in the sun and its roots in the shade as it normally scrambles through trees.I don’t think you need to worry about your neighbour’s honeysuckle dying as they will be a match for each other!
