Description

Lonicera x tellmanniana is an award-winning Honeysuckle with warm, golden yellow to orange flowers in summer. Unlike many other Lonicera, this variety's blooms are only very lightly scented, making it an ideal choice for those after the aesthetic appeal of a Honeysuckle without the typical heady fragrance.

Plant Tellmann's Honeysuckle against a climbing support, such as a fence or trellis, in a moist, well-draining soil. Approximate height and spread of 4 x 2 metres in 20 years.

Planting Steps

1Preparation

  • Pot-grown plants can be planted at any time of year, whereas bare roots need to be planted between November and March.
  • Clear weeds and grass within a metre of the planting hole.
  • Dig a hole as deep as the root mass and twice as wide.
  • To help your plant establish more effectively, sprinkle Rootgrow in the hole.

2Planting

  • Gently loosen the roots and place into the planting hole.
  • Ensure the top of the plant's compost is flush with the level of the surrounding soil and the graft union or collar of the tree is above ground level.
  • Mix 50% of the original soil with 50% compost.
  • Fill in the hole, firming the soil gently.

3Last Steps

  • Water generously around the base of the plant.
  • If you are planting either a single stem tree or mature standard tree, we recommend adding a staking kit and rabbit guard.

Aftercare Advice

Trees and shrubs require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.
