A twining, climbing plant most honeysuckles need some support as they shoot skywards for up to 30 feet. Try trellis or and old tree for support.
Most varieties of the honeysuckle are famous for the scent of the flowers which is sweet and powerful. Aim for a red Lonicera tellmanniana or L.fragrantisima rather than the Belgica.
Left to trail the plants can still be effective in a semi woodland enviroment
Lonicera nitida honeysuckle can be pruned and shaped like topiary. I can recommend Baggesens Gold a small yellow leaved variety.
Plants root easily from summer cuttings. I have a plant that has moved house at least 5 times.
