I have always tried to be friendly to the local critters.A couple years ago,I noticed that a lonicera fragrantissima at my sons house was covered with bees and small wasps on a warm January day.It tends to make a globular bush about 4 or 5 feet wide and tall, and naturally tends to layer it's lower limbs and root such that it makes it's own transplants.Here in zone 8b east Texas it is a wonderful addition to the yard.It smells great and provides pollen at a time when bees really need it.
