How Do You Plant Coral Honeysuckle Seeds?
The coral honeysuckle is an evergreen, or a deciduous growing vine, depending on the region. It is a native plant to the North and South Eastern regions of the United States. Coral honeysuckle is hardy in USDA Zones 4 to 10. The 1 1/2- to 2-inch long, tubular-shaped, coral-red to bright orange flowers bloom from spring until the first frost. Plant coral honeysuckle in full sun to partial shade. Its showy flowers will attract numerous butterflies and hummingbirds to your garden. Put 1/2 to 1 cup of sphagnum moss into a sealable polythene bag. Pour in 1 tablespoon of water, then add the coral honeysuckle seeds to the bag. Shake the bag gently and seal it closed. Put the bag where the temperature will stay at about 35 to 40 F for 30 to 45 days. Check on the bag every three or four days. Mist the moss in the bag often enough to keep the contents moist, but not soggy wet. Remove the bag containing the coral honeysuckle seeds after the allotted time.
