Is Now a Good Time to Plant?

Yes! Fall is one of the best times to plant!

Landscaping experts often recommend planting in fall instead of waiting until spring. Here’s why:

  • Cooler weather puts less stress on newly planted trees and shrubs.
  • Fall soil is still warm, which helps roots grow and get established.
  • Cooler temperatures mean less water is lost through the leaves, making it easier for plants to stay hydrated.
  • Even after top growth slows for winter, roots continue developing below ground.
  • Fall weather often brings more rain and less heat, making new plants easier to care for.
  • By spring, your plants already have a head start. Their established roots can support strong new leaves, branches, and flowers.
  • Trees planted in spring must establish their roots while also dealing with rising temperatures and summer heat.

Plant this fall, and your trees can spend the cooler months getting settled instead of waiting until spring to get started!

Planting your 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle Vine

Planting Instructions for 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle Vine (Lonicera periclymenum)

  1. Soil Preparation: 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle thrives in well-drained, moderately fertile soil. It can tolerate a wide range of soil types, from sandy to clay, but prefers slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 6.0-7.5). Before planting, work organic matter like compost into the soil to improve its structure and nutrient content.
  2. Planting Depth: Dig a hole about twice as wide as the root ball and slightly shallower than its depth to prevent water from collecting around the roots. Place the vine in the hole so the top of the root ball is just above the surrounding soil. Backfill the hole with the excavated soil, gently firming it around the base of the plant. Mound the soil slightly to ensure good drainage.
  3. Support Structure: 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle is a vigorous climbing vine, so plant it near a trellis, fence, or arbor for support. You can help train the vine by loosely tying the stems to the support structure as it grows.
  4. Spacing: Space plants about 3-5 feet apart to allow for adequate airflow and prevent overcrowding, as this vine can grow up to 10 feet tall and wide.
  5. Watering: Water thoroughly after planting, ensuring that the soil around the roots is moist. For the first growing season, keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy to help the plant establish strong roots.
  6. Mulching: Apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch, such as shredded bark or straw, around the base of the plant. Mulching helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.

Care Instructions

  1. Watering Routine: Once established, 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle is somewhat drought-tolerant but prefers consistent moisture. Water deeply once a week, especially during dry spells, to keep the soil evenly moist. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely between waterings.
  2. Light Requirements: This vine thrives in full sun to partial shade. For the best flowering and fragrance, plant in a location where it receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. In hotter climates, some afternoon shade can prevent the foliage from scorching.
  3. Fertilization: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced fertilizer, such as 10-10-10, to encourage healthy growth and abundant blooms. You can also top-dress the soil with compost in spring for a slow-release nutrient boost.
  4. Monitoring: Keep an eye on the foliage for signs of stress, such as yellowing leaves, which can indicate improper watering or nutrient deficiencies. Proper watering and good drainage will keep the plant healthy.

Maintenance and Long-Term Care

  1. Pruning: Prune 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or weak stems to encourage stronger growth. You can also prune after the flowering season to maintain the desired size and shape. Regular pruning promotes better air circulation and helps prevent fungal diseases.
  2. Training: As a vigorous climber, this honeysuckle needs regular training. Gently tie new growth to a trellis or support structure as it grows to encourage it to climb. You can also redirect or trim any wayward stems that are growing away from the support.
  3. Pest Control: While 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle is relatively pest-resistant, it may occasionally attract aphids or spider mites. Check the foliage regularly for signs of infestation, such as sticky residue or yellowing leaves. If pests appear, use a strong spray of water to knock them off or treat with insecticidal soap if needed.
  4. Disease Prevention: This honeysuckle vine is generally resistant to major diseases but may develop powdery mildew or leaf spots if planted in areas with poor air circulation. Regular pruning and ensuring good airflow around the plant will help prevent these issues. Watering at the base of the plant, rather than from overhead, also helps prevent fungal diseases.
  5. Winter Care: 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle is hardy in USDA zones 4-9, making it tolerant of cold winters. In areas with harsh winters, apply a thicker layer of mulch around the base of the plant to protect the roots from freezing temperatures.

Blooming scentsation honeysuckle vine with bright yellow and white flowers with vibrant green leaves.

Beware- not all 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle Vines are the same.

Be sure to get superior vines, grown by experts.

Better Roots Make Stronger Plants: Some nurseries send you "bare root" vines to save on shipping. Even worse, others have started digging them right out of the ground before shipping. This causes major transplant shock and long-term damage. We send you 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle Vines in soil-filled containers- ensuring a well-developed root system that will explode with growth and blooms!

Healthy Plants: We've seen other nurseries grow tall vines in tiny pots to save on shipping. This leads to a "root bound" plant, where the roots have outgrown their pot- they cannot absorb water and nutrients. They quickly dry out during shipment, leading to an unhealthy plant.

  • Very fragrant flowers open creamy white and turn golden yellow

Not all plants are created equal

The Difference Is in the Roots

Every plant we ship has grown in a nursery container with its roots protected, so it arrives healthy, established and ready to thrive in your yard.

A full, branched Nationwide Plants tree in a nursery pot next to a thin bare-root tree with exposed roots Ours: container grown Theirs: bare root
Nationwide Plants Other Nurseries
How it's grown Grown in a nursery container, roots protected the whole time Pulled or dug from the field, tearing fragile roots
How it arrives Arrives in its pot with soil intact Arrives bare root, exposed and drying out
Before shipping Growing naturally until it ships Held dormant in a cooler, then shocked by a hot shipping box
Root health Strong, well-developed roots with room to grow Crammed into a small pot until it's root bound
Height Measured from the top of the soil Often includes the pot and roots
After planting Settles in quickly with less transplant shock Arrives stressed and can take years to recover, if it does

The height you see is the height you plant.

We measure every plant from the top of the soil, not the bottom of the pot. Many nurseries include the pot and roots, so a "5–6 ft." tree from them might stand only 4 ft. tall once it's planted.

Comparisons reflect common practices across the online plant industry, not any single company.

Honest Measurements: Some nurseries measure plants including the pot and roots, so the plant you receive is much smaller than you expected. We measure all of our plants from the soil line, so the height you see is what you can expect after planting.

From our nursery to your door

How We Ship Your Plants

Every order is hand-selected, watered and carefully packed so it arrives healthy and ready to plant. Here's what happens after you place your order.

  1. Hand-Picked for You

    Our team selects the best plant available for your order. For privacy trees, that's the tallest and fullest. For fruit trees, it's the best branched.

    Why it matters: Many online nurseries ship whatever is next in the row.

  2. A Deep Drink Before the Trip

    Every plant gets a thorough watering right before it's packed, so it starts the journey fully hydrated.

  3. Roots Sealed In

    We wrap the pot and roots in plastic to lock in moisture, so your plant has water to drink all the way to your door.

    Why it matters: Bare-root plants are often shipped with their roots exposed and drying out.

  4. Braced for the Ride

    Cardboard inserts are secured inside every box to hold your plant in place, so it won't slide, tip or get damaged in transit.

  5. Shipped Only by FedEx

    We ship your trees exclusively with FedEx. We've found they deliver the fastest and handle live plants the most gently.

And if anything goes wrong, every plant is backed by our 1 Year Warranty.

Healthy Roots Make a Huge Difference

  • Never buy bare-root plants. These trees are starved of nutrients, and have a low survival rate.
  • Beware of nurseries cut corners by growing in small pots. These "rootbound" plants are weak, struggle to absorb nutrients, and die quickly after planting.
  • Some nurseries try to sell oversized plants, but chop off vital roots so they can cram the rootball into a narrow box to save on shipping!

You Want 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle Vines Grown by Experts

Some nurseries ship small, weak vines grown in tiny pots to save money. These "root bound" plants struggle after planting and take longer to climb and bloom well.

Nationwide Plants only sends you strong 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle Vines, selected and cared for by our plant experts, with healthy, developed root systems. That means it settles in quickly and starts covering your trellis with fragrant blooms sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions about the 'Scentsation' Honeysuckle Vine

When does Scentsation Honeysuckle bloom?

Scentsation Honeysuckle blooms over an exceptionally long season, from about May through September. Its tubular flowers open creamy white and mature to golden yellow, releasing a powerful, sweet fragrance that is especially noticeable in the evening on warm summer days.

How big does Scentsation Honeysuckle get?

Scentsation Honeysuckle is a fast-growing climbing vine that typically reaches about 8 to 10 feet tall and 5 to 6 feet wide on a support. Regular pruning after flowering keeps it at the size and shape you want on a trellis, fence, arbor, or pergola.

Does Scentsation Honeysuckle attract hummingbirds?

Yes, Scentsation Honeysuckle is a magnet for hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees. Its fragrant, nectar-rich tubular blooms provide food for pollinators over a long season, making it an excellent addition to wildlife-friendly gardens and patios. Plant it near a seating area or window so you can enjoy both the fragrance and the frequent visitors throughout summer.

What zones does Scentsation Honeysuckle grow in?

Scentsation Honeysuckle grows in USDA zones 4 through 9, so it handles cold winters well. Mulching around the base in late fall helps protect the roots in the coldest areas, and the vine will leaf out and bloom again on new growth each season.

Is Scentsation Honeysuckle invasive?

Scentsation is a selection of European woodbine honeysuckle, Lonicera periclymenum, which is a different species from Japanese honeysuckle, the vine most often listed as invasive in the United States. Still, check your state's invasive plant list and keep the vine trained on its support.

How much sun does Scentsation Honeysuckle need?

Scentsation Honeysuckle blooms best in full sun, with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for the most flowers and strongest fragrance. It can tolerate partial shade, and in hot climates some afternoon shade helps prevent the foliage from scorching.

Does Scentsation Honeysuckle need a trellis?

Yes, Scentsation Honeysuckle is a twining vine that needs a trellis, fence, arbor, or pergola to climb. Plant it near the support and loosely tie new stems to guide them as they grow. Space multiple vines about 3 to 5 feet apart for good airflow.

When should I prune Scentsation Honeysuckle?

Prune Scentsation Honeysuckle in late winter or early spring before new growth starts, removing dead, damaged, or weak stems. You can also trim after the main flowering season to control size and shape. Regular pruning improves air circulation and helps prevent fungal disease.

Are Scentsation Honeysuckle berries edible?

No, the small red berries that follow Scentsation Honeysuckle flowers should not be eaten, as honeysuckle berries of this species can cause stomach upset if ingested. They are ornamental and attract birds, so enjoy them for their color and wildlife value rather than as fruit.

Can Scentsation Honeysuckle ship to Arizona or Oregon?

No, Scentsation Honeysuckle cannot be shipped to Arizona or Oregon due to state plant shipping restrictions. It is available in 2 and 3 gallon sizes for customers in other states, ready to plant beside a sunny trellis, fence, or arbor.
