Default RE: Honeysuckle

This weekend one of the hunting shows addressed planting of honeysuckle. They suggested a ph of 5.7. After they tilled a row they planted the honeysuckle plugs (available at nurseries) at about 1 1/2 feet, then took a piece of dog wire fence 6' tall and made a rounded cage over the young plants to protect them from the deer and rabbits till it gets established. As the honeysuckle grows out of the wire it makes a good food area. They planted a row about 50' long it looked like.
