Abstract

Bush honeysuckle and Japanese honeysuckle are highly invasive shrubs and vines, with birds consuming fruit and seeds. They are imported from Asia for erosion control, wildlife food, and ornamental plantings. Controlling them requires vigilance, treatment when populations are small, and follow-up foliar herbicides. Part of the W1924 Invasive Species series.
