Water:
Pyrenean honeysuckle prefers moderate moisture and consistent watering, ideally every three weeks, allowing the soil to dry slightly. It is drought-tolerant and typically grown outdoors, entering dormancy and reducing water needs during seasonal changes.
Fertilize:
For pyrenean honeysuckle, use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer (10-10-10 NPK) in early spring at a quarter-strength every 4-6 weeks. Reduce frequency in cooler seasons and stop in winter to prevent harm. Follow product guidelines to avoid foliage burn, ensuring pyrenean honeysuckle's health and beauty.
Pruning:
Pyrenean honeysuckle is a deciduous shrub with fragrant flowers. Prune in early spring by removing dead stems and overcrowded branches to enhance health and airflow. This annual pruning promotes flowering and prevents legginess. Regular inspections can also help manage pests, ensuring a healthier garden.
Propagation:
Pyrenean honeysuckle, native to mountainous regions, prefers well-drained soil and can be propagated through cuttings. Use healthy semi-hardwood stems with leaf nodes, enhance rooting with hormone, and maintain moisture while avoiding direct sunlight. Transplant rooted cuttings to conditions similar to their native habitat for best results.
