Post by: Tina on Sep 18, 2010, 02:57:24 PM: I plant them on purpose. Not a weed here.

Post by: Tina on Sep 20, 2010, 01:15:21 PM: I planted a honeysuckle on my cliff. I was sorry very soon. I am still working on eradicating it.

Post by: Jessica on Sep 20, 2010, 01:18:59 PM: People love honeysuckle here. I don't have any. I imagine it doesn't get out of control here like it would for those of you in warmer climates.

Very pretty flower, dodge!
