#ProPlantTips For Care

Deer resistant and extremely hardy, Goldflame Honeysuckle thrives in a wide range of USDA 4 through 9 hardiness zones. Just provide good air circulation and water to keep these bi-color pink flowers going strong all summer!

Loving the full sun, these are also tolerant of partial sun, especially when planted in hotter climates; appreciating the relief from the summer sun.

Goldflame is highly disease resistant and adaptable. Not particular about soil type, Honeysuckle Vines loves any well-drained soil that ranges from acidic to alkaline.

Take care when applying lawn fertilizers near flowering shrubs. These high nitrogen formulas are designed to produce foliage, but will not support flower development. Instead, apply an all-purpose fertilizer for blooming plants in early spring. Reapply in mid-summer, following label directions for application rates.

Flowering best in average moisture, Goldflame is very drought tolerant once established. Extremely easy care and low maintenance, these won’t need pruning but are highly conducive to pruning if needed.

Sometimes a plant performs just a bit too well in certain areas. Rest assured, Nature Hills uses Plant Sentry™ to track all federal, state and local regulations on invasive materials. We will always protect you and your community.

Please note, the following information reflects the estimated average ballistics for each caliber and does not pertain to a particular manufacturer, bullet weight, or jacketing type. As such, the following is for comparative information purposes only and should not be used to make precise predictions of the trajectory, performance, or true ballistics of any particular .22 LR Long Rifle or .22 Short rounds for hunting, target shooting, plinking, or any other usage. The decision for which round is better for a given application should be made with complete information, and this article simply serves as a comparative guide, not the final say. For more detailed ballistics information please refer to the exact round in question or contact the manufacturer for the pertinent information. True .22 LR Long Rifle and .22 Short ballistics information can vary widely from the displayed information, and it is important to understand that the particular characteristics of a given round can make a substantive difference in its true performance. Caliber Type Velocity (fps) Energy (ft-lb) .22 LR Long Rifle Rimfire 1060 100 .22 Short Rimfire 900 50 [Click Here to Shop .22 LR Long Rifle Ammo] [Click Here to Shop .22 Short Ammo] VelocityAs illustrated in the chart, .22 LR Long Rifle rounds - on average - achieve a velocity of about 1060 feet per second (fps) while .22 Short rounds travel at a velocity of 900 fps. To put this into perspective, a Boeing 737 commercial airliner travels at a cruising speed of 600 mph, or 880 fps. That is to say, .22 LR Long Rifle bullets travel 1.2 times the speed of a 737 airplane at cruising speed, while .22 Short bullets travel 1 times that same speed.Various calibersEnergyFurthermore, the muzzle energy of a .22 LR Long Rifle round averages out to 100 ft-lb, while a .22 Short round averages out to about 50 ft-lb. One way to think about this is as such: a foot-pound is a unit of energy equal to the amount of energy required to raise a weight of one pound a distance of one foot. So a .22 LR Long Rifle round exits the barrel with kinetic energy equal to the energy required for linear vertical displacement of 100 pounds through a one foot distance, while a .22 Short round exiting the barrel has energy equal to the amount required to displace 50 pounds over the same one foot distance. As a rule of thumb, when it comes to hunting, muzzle energy is what many hunters look at when deciding on what caliber of firearm / ammunition to select. Generally speaking, the higher the muzzle energy, the higher the stopping power. Again, the above is for comparative information purposes only, and you should consult the exact ballistics for the particular .22 LR Long Rifle or .22 Short cartridge you're looking at purchasing.
