However, we used my legs and back and a Puller Bear to remove the bush honeysuckles. Our largest plants, 6' tall or so, came out with judicious amounts of muscle. The Puller Bear may work for larger plants as it helped with the smaller ones I tried it on in our yard. I also suggest a spading fork with a long handle to help remove the roots.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1435958623150_4862" dir="ltr"> </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1435958623150_4872" dir="ltr">The Puller Bear was very useful pulling out the roots of Oriental bittersweet.</div><div dir="ltr"> </div><div dir="ltr"> Richard Gardner</div><br> <blockquote id="yui_3_16_0_1_1435958623150_4743" style="padding-left: 5px; margin-top: 5px; margin-left: 5px; border-left-color: rgb(16, 16, 255); border-left-width: 2px; border-left-style: solid;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1435958623150_4742" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1435958623150_4741" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1435958623150_4740" dir="ltr"> <hr size="1"> <font id="yui_3_16_0_1_1435958623150_4767" face="Arial" size="2"> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> Milo Pyne <Milo_Pyne@natureserve.org><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Toni Bailey <toni@gracefullygreen.com>; "maipc@lists.maipc.org" <maipc@lists.maipc.org> <br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Friday, July 3, 2015 11:31 AM<br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> Re: [MAIPC] Honeysuckle management<br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1435958623150_4758"><br><div id="yiv4227711890"><style>#yiv4227711890 #yiv4227711890 --

The natives seem to be successful, but some of the honeysuckle
requires re-treatment. So I would say the allelopathic effects are not persistent (but this is highly anecdotal).</span></div>

<div class="yiv4227711890MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span>I am working with a client who has large stands of bush honeysuckle on a slope within their property, which they hope to remove in the fall. We've heard
about allelopathy in shrub honeysuckle and are wondering how this will affect new plants. Does anyone have experience with this? Will the substance persist in the soil after the plants are removed? They intend to re-plant with native shrubs. If new shrubs
are planted soon after the honeysuckle is removed, are the new plants at risk?</span></div>
