Re: temps/humidity/invaders

No, I am pretty sure that the plant is L. maackii, the Amur honeysuckle. It springs up everywhere around here, and I'm forever pulling it. Well, the "everywhere" is a slight exaggeration, it likes a bit of shade, so I find it in the shade garden and under just about every large tree on the property.

Cathy,
Are you refering to Diervilla, sometimes called Georgia Bush
Honeysuckle? It is hardy here; we have 2 specimens at our Display
Gardens. Never noticed a problem with seedlings. Or is this some variety
of Lonicera?

For me it is the *#%#@* bush honeysuckle seedlings! It is an

unfortunate sequelae to my bird feeding efforts...they come for the
food and leave a "contribution"! Oh well...

In my yard it is elm seedlings - we find new ones every time we

look at

a bed.  You're right, Marge, a summer long project.

----------

I got wild cherry, boxelder, maple and elm - lifelong project; not to
mention the bleedin' walnuts that the squirrels bury that pop up
seemingly everywhere and this year, for some reason, I seem to have a
bumper crop of poison ivy...gotta take a day; don the protective gear
and go after it.



In addition to a bumper crop of maples, squirrel-planted hickories and
oaks,
and the usual poison ivy, this year I am swamped with Oriental
bittersweet
Celastrus orbiculata that is coming up by the thousands everywhere I
look - lawn,
flower beds, hedges, driveway, just everywhere.    Auralie

If you have weeds, you don't have enough plants.
