When to plant coral honeysuckle

Coral honeysuckle is a twining native vine that flowers in mid to late spring (NC State: March to July) with red trumpet-shaped blooms hummingbirds love. Plant it in spring or fall on a trellis, arbor, or fence; it flowers on new growth, so prune only after flowering.

Coral Honeysuckle is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
