Plant at 3-5 plants per meter for optimal hedge coverage, or use as mass planting for ground cover. The strong root system helps stabilize soil on banks and slopes. Lonicera pileata requires little maintenance once established - simply trim in summer and autumn to maintain shape if using as a low hedge. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots, then only during extended dry periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWildlife Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fragrant spring flowers attract pollinators including bees and butterflies, while the autumn berries provide food for birds.
