Honeysuckle is good because it is considered to be undemanding to all growing conditions - that is its main advantage. It can be planted on different soil types. But excellent fruiting I could only get on well peregnoennom garden plot. It is best to plant honeysuckle in September.
I buy for planting perennial plants with 4 branches. Well, for a future landing pit should be prepared in advance. Their digging size 60x60 cm and a depth of about 80 centimeters. It is necessary to leave the 2 meter distance between the plants. Such planting to achieve maximum productivity.
Honeysuckle grows poorly when its root system flooding groundwater. If clay soil, then at the very bottom of the pit is required to fill a large layer of broken bricks or gravel to ensure good drainage and the soil add sand or peat. The pit itself is good I make a bucket of compost or rotted manure, 50 g. potassium salt, and you can still add 80 grams of superphosphate. The roots of the seedlings carefully straighten and fully fall asleep ground. When planting bushes themselves of this plant is not worth much to bury, so-called root collar should be at ground level. Then the plant should be carefully watered and mulch the soil around sawdust or peat layer. This is an important moment.
How to care for honeysuckle
After planting - it is of great importance regular watering. During summer the plants should be watered 7-10 times, with irrigation rate should be not less than 10-20 liters per plant. It is very useful to spray the aerial parts of the plants, especially in hot weather. Care honeysuckle, in addition to regular irrigation is reduced mainly to the cultivation and weeding.
Not recommended after planting for a year to make a variety of fertilizers under the honeysuckle. The following year, when autumn digging, you can make organic fertilizer, which will last for 2-3 years.
I still like honeysuckle in that it does not need pruning, you can remove only the dry and broken branches.
