Hi

I've just bought 2 plants. (1) is a honeysuckle which I have planted next to
a fence with strawberry netting on the fence and coated wire in front
running horizontal with approx 16 inch spacing X3.... Is that alright??

Now the other is Kerria..(Golden guinea) which I picked up from the climbing
section in
the nursery, but now I,ve got it home I've noticed it's say's it'a a shrub
(Height 6' Spread 6')
Do you think this was placed in the wrong section? And if possible can this
be trained as a climber, If so how? Or just plant it 3' from one of my
fences? I know I could take it back but we like it.

Don't expect to salvage the strawberry netting after it gets
established - otherwise, fine.

It can be trained as a wall shrub, yes. It is naturally upright
and arching, but you can tie it back. I would plant it 6-12" from the
fence if I were doing that to it.
