Why honeysuckle is needed in every area: what is the benefit of the plant and how to care for it
Honeysuckle is a great way to add variety to your spring harvest of greens and radishes.
According to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , garden honeysuckle is the very first berry that appears on a garden plot.
In addition to the fact that honeysuckle fruits are juicy and tasty, they are also very healthy.
Sometimes the berries may taste bitter – this happens if the bush did not have enough moisture in the heat. Therefore, if there is a drought outside, do not skimp on watering – it is worth pouring 2 buckets of water under one bush 2-3 times a month.
To keep the soil moist for longer, don't forget about mulching. Compost mixed with sawdust is the best choice for this.
Before this, the area around the honeysuckle tree trunk must be thoroughly loosened.
Care also includes treatment against diseases and pests, fortunately honeysuckle rarely gets sick, as well as is attacked by various parasites.
There is no need to feed the plant in the first 2 years. When they grow up, use nitrogen-containing fertilizers in the spring, and potassium-phosphorus fertilizers in the fall.
