Bayberry / Honeysuckle questions???????

Posted by lary1047 z5 MI (My Page) on Sun, Apr 20, 08 at 0:13
Hello!!
I have a semi wooded and semi sun area that I need to plant bushes that will give me good dense blind from a walk path. I was told that either Bayberry or Honeysuckle bush would grow fast and end up from 8 to 10 feet tall. This is Zone 5 Michigan. Can anyone give me suggestions if one plant would work better than the other??
Thanks

| Hi, I just cut back a honeysuckle, which did grow like crazy! I trained it up a trellis, but it wasn't strong enough and kept bending over. I don't know what it would do, if it wasn't on a trellis, although I've seen them growing that way. Can't see how it would be 10 feet tall without one. Did you mean Barberry for the other choice? If so, that one has lots of prickers on it. Hope this helps! I can't wait to get started although I doing lots of clean up and prep! |
