Clematis with Coral/Trumpet Honeysuckle?

13 years ago

Hi all,

I am moving to northern NJ this summer and planning what to bring and where to put it. I was thinking the red orange Coral Honeysuckle would look nice planted with both an earlier blooming Clematis Ramona and a later blooming Clematis (looks like a small Jackman).

Has anyone put these 2 vines together? Will one overpower the other or can they grow nicely together?

Thanks!

I live in NW Florida, and red trumpet honeysuckle consumes huge trees - I am not sure your plan is a good one. You might consider pinwheel Jasmine - the fragrance is spicy and awesome, and it can get as huge as your honeysuckle. You might do a google.com search and check it out.
