This is the best, hardiest, and most profusely-blooming honeysuckle in my garden. I have not done a thing to it since I planted it, besides a handful of fertilizer in the spring. Maybe a shot of water here and there during a long drought (which it probably doesn't even need). Otherwise - no pruning, no dead-heading, nothing but love.

Training:
Make specific cuts to the plant to encourage growth in the desired direction. If the plant is growing too large, trim the oldest vines and branches throughout the plant. Cut above buds facing in the direction you want the plant to grow.
Early Spring Maintenance:
Cut away dead or damaged branches and vines. Make the cut about 1/4 inch above the bud so that the plant blooms the following season. Cut above buds facing in the direction you want the plant to grow.
Thin out interlaced and crossing branches or vines. Carefully loosen the tangled areas and cut the branches and vines one by one. Cut off about 1/3 of the live growth.
