Honeysuckle?

i have a honeysuckle that is growing well, but it never seems to flower. any tips?

Honeysuckle?
as long as you fertilize (and or have mulch around the base) and trim back every year, you should get blooms by next year.





However, Honeysuckles can be late bloomers, ours has not bloomed yet, but it blooms every year and is starting to put out buds now.





The trimming is important because the blooms come on new growth, so the more you trim, the more new growth you will get=more blooms.





good luck.
Reply:When I planted my honeysuckle it was the next following spring before they bloomed. I had one group that it took two years for it to bloom. Just give yours sometime and the should bloom for you.
