Q.Can I Plant Different Varieties Of Honeysuckle Vines Next To Each Other On A Wall Trellis?
I am looking at four varieties for a 40 foot, east facing (full sun in the morning, full shade in the afternoon) wall trellis in central Illinois: Major Wheeler, Coral, Scentsational, and Mandarin. Can any or all of these be planted next to each other?

They can be planted next to each other but I hope the wall trellis is very sturdy because they will be heavy. Pruning in late winter will help to lighten the load.
Major Wheeler and Coral vine are native trumpet honeysuckles. Here is more:
