cape honeysuckle vine planting

13 years ago

I just planted (4) 5 gallon vines (2 days now) and (1) looks
great, All are green leaved, but the other (3) have limp leaves. They only get sun until early afternoon. Is the limp
leave a problem or normal for new plantings. They all have been watered well. Or do they need full sun all day?

Yes, that leaf-dropping is normal right after planting. Just keep it well watered for a month, until it roots in well. I have them growing under trees and in full sun - they do well with either setting.
