Can you succesfully grow a climbing rose and honeysuckle together?

I have a wooden pergola outside my back door. There is a rose, a honeysuckle and until recently, a jasmine and clematis, which could all climb over it. I inherited this when we moved in, it was just a huge tangle of climbers and the rose was invisible. It has come back beautifully since I cut the others back. The honeysuckle is very vigorous, if I let it regrow will it just swamp the rose? Could I let the honeysuckle grow and then cut it back hard each year?

the honeysuckle will grow until Autumn then fall back, cut to size and wait till next spring, the rose will do well with a feed in the Autumn and cutting back at the end of the season, my climbing rose flower's until December so just remove the flower's tie the plants to your own suit and all will be well
Reply:The best time to cut hard back is in autumn.I do this every year with mine,plus you can do the rose at the same time
Reply:Yes, keep them under control.

kids hurt my climatis the other day, so debating about adding a prickly rose as deterant

sounds an ideal combo, trim back hard after flowering

roses like a good trim and honeysuckle are vigourous and will be OK
Reply:a lovely mix



cut the honeysuckle back to reasonable limits yearly to allow the rose to flower and show off it's best then the honeysuckle will give you scent and floewrs late in the year



do enjoy them
