Growing them up poles is a little odd. You can tie them on,
cut them back, or whatever. Lonicera periclymenum is very
tough. Do most of your pruning in winter, for best flowering.

They really need at least 2 metres of height, and preferably
1 metre of width, but will grow a lot bigger if given the chance.
