Coral Honeysuckle – Native Flowering Vine

Advanced Nursery Growers

$24.00

4 items left

Coral Honeysuckle is a beautiful Florida native vine with clusters of coral-red, trumpet-shaped flowers that hummingbirds love. Unlike invasive Japanese honeysuckle, this well-behaved native vine is a wonderful choice for trellises, fences, arbors, mailboxes, and wildlife gardens.

The flowers generally begin appearing in spring and may continue periodically through summer. Small red berries can follow the flowers, providing additional interest for birds. Coral Honeysuckle grows well in North Florida and becomes evergreen to semi-evergreen during mild winters.

ATTRACTS POLLINATORS AND HUMMINGBIRDS

For the heaviest flowering, plant Coral Honeysuckle where it receives at least six hours of direct sunlight. It will grow in partial shade, but flowering may be lighter. Avoid excessive high-nitrogen fertilizer, which can produce lots of leaves with fewer flowers.
