    Japanese H Oneysuckle: Lonicera Japonica

    Uploaded by

    shannon_abby
    Japanese honeysuckle is an invasive vine native to East Asia. It has tubular flowers that are white to pink in color. The stems and leaves are hairy and it produces small black fruits. It climbs and trails by twisting around vertical structures. It can outcompete and kill native plants by blocking sunlight, stealing water and nutrients from the soil, and strangling trees. Removing Japanese honeysuckle from natural areas benefits both human and wildlife by restoring a healthier environment.

     rapid growth occurs in sun-


    exposed areas

     tolerates both sun & shade,


    prefers moist soils

    Hideouts
     can grow to heights so high up that they then
    block sunlight necessary for native plants to grow

    CRIMES  have shallow root systems which steals the


    available water in the soil from other plants which
    have deeper roots

     vines twist and tightly wrap around the trunks,


    limbs and stems of plants and trees; this cuts of
    their circulation of water

     some birds are attracted to the berries of the


    plant, which ultimately spreads seeds of the plant
    even more

     mice are also attracted to the dense cover of this


    plant; unfortunately they attract ticks that feed off
    Japanese Honeysuckle taking them which carry diseases harmful to humans,
    over and killing a tree. such as Lyme’s Disease
