Beautiful pot product for a terrace
Beautiful, unusual plant that sits wonderfully on our terrace and is comfortable for the past year in our pots!

This shrub is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.

This honeysuckle has a neat compact form, good for my small garden. The scent wafts about in the afternoon and evening.

Lovely long lasting flowers that smell like jasmine & no mildew which all my climbing honeysuckles have suffered from. Every garden should have one

I bought 2 of these plants in the summer of 2019 for container growing in my south facing garden. They both flowered but one of them developed mildew on the leaves and looks a bit scraggly. I'm hoping they will be established now and produce more flowers this year to look bushier. Not sure if I can recommend this plant yet, we'll see what happens this summer.

This is a lovely small honeysuckle - just right for the patio. It is not a climber. Seems slow growing so may plant out onto a border in a year or two. Flowered profusely all summer and Autumn.

My first ever compact patio Honeysuckle. Planted in planter on terrace. Made lots of good growth in 1 year. Sufficiently compact for patio. Endless flowers, scent & red berries after. Healthy shoots for 2019. So good, I bought another!!

Powdery mildew on honeysuckle would indicate air is not circulating around the plant and this could be due to overcrowding which can be improved with annual pruning. Once established trim back lanky stems after flowering and remove up to a third of the oldest stems. In early spring, apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted compost or manure around the base of the plant, avoiding the immediate crown.

Hello, I tend to remove the earlier flowers after they have fade, but then by mid- to late summer, I leave them on so I have some berries to enjoy too!

Yes, I would say that it should feel quite happy in this pot - provided it is kept well fed and watered.

It depends on whether or not you want to pot it up in stages or not, but I would aim for a pot that is around 40cm in diameter when the plant matures.

Wildlife-friendly gardens are not only more interesting as you can watch all the comings and goings, but they are often more productive as many creatures will help increase pollination. Garden ponds act as a magnet to dragonflies and damsel flies, along w

As summer turns to autumn, thoughts turn to tidying the garden after the exuberance of summer and it is now an ideal time to prune many late-summer-flowering shrubs to keep them vigorous and flowering well. It’s also not too late to complete the pruning j

Every garden contains some shady areas and honeysuckles like to have their feet in good soil in shade, before they scramble into the sun. They take up very little ground room and they can climb trees, or drape themselves over walls, or they can be shaped
