A Native Honeysuckle Vine That Hummingbirds Can't Resist
Coral Honeysuckle Offers Vivid Red-Coral Blooms, Effortless Care, and Wildlife Appeal All Season Long
- Vivid red-coral tubular blooms attract hummingbirds and butterflies spring through fall
- Red berries in fall and winter draw songbirds for year-round wildlife value
- Native to eastern North America — non-invasive, ecologically responsible, and easy to grow
- Thrives in USDA Zones 4–10, growing 15–20 ft. tall; works on fences, trellises, arbors, and as ground cover
- Drought tolerant once established and largely pest-free; genuinely low maintenance
- Evergreen in warm climates; may die back and regrow in colder zones
If you've ever wanted to attract hummingbirds to your yard without a lot of fuss, Coral Honeysuckle is your answer. This native plant (Lonicera sempervirens) is one of the most rewarding plants we grow. It's tough, fast-climbing, and covered in clusters of vivid red-coral tubular flowers from spring through summer, with sporadic blooms stretching into fall in warmer zones. Unlike the invasive Japanese honeysuckle you want to avoid, this one plays well in the garden, stays manageable, and does something far more useful: it feeds hummingbirds, butterflies, and songbirds all season long.
What Makes the Coral Honeysuckle Special?
A Hummingbird and Pollinator Magnet. The long, tubular coral-red flowers are perfectly shaped for hummingbirds, and butterflies work them just as hard. Once the blooms give way to bright red berries in late summer and fall, songbirds move in. Plant one of these and you're essentially putting out a year-round wildlife buffet in your own backyard.
Blooms for Months, Not Just Weeks. Most flowering vines give you a concentrated burst of color and then go quiet. Coral Honeysuckle keeps producing new blooms on fresh growth from spring through summer, with continued flowering into fall and even mild winters in warmer zones. That's sustained color and wildlife value over most of the growing season.
A True Native, Not Invasive. Coral Honeysuckle is native across the eastern United States, and that matters. It supports native wildlife the way imported plants simply can't, and it won't take over your yard or neighboring wild areas the way Japanese honeysuckle does. It's the responsible, beautiful choice for any pollinator or wildlife garden.
Versatile in the Landscape. Train it up a trellis, fence, arbor, or mailbox post for a classic cottage-garden look. Let it spill down a wall or slope as a ground cover. Grow it in a large container on a patio. The dark green leaves with silvery undersides look attractive year-round, and in South Florida the vine stays fully evergreen.
How to Care for Coral Honeysuckle
- Plant it in full sun to partial shade; more sun means more blooms
- These flower vines thrive in well-drained soil that's slightly acidic to neutral. Add our acidic potting soil at checkout for best results!
- Water regularly through the first growing season to help it establish, then back off; once it's settled in, it handles drought without complaint.
- Prune in early spring, typically mid to late March, to encourage a flush of lush new growth and keep the vine from getting bare at the base.
Coral Honeysuckle is about as forgiving as vines come. Beyond that annual cutback and occasional shaping, it really doesn't ask much. Feed once or twice a year with slow-release root boosting fertilizer in spring and fall, and you're all set!

I was glad I bought it until four or five months later...
Color: Black
I am now about a week and a half into using this keyboard. It is the first time I have used an ergonomic split keyboard. I am a medical transcriptionist and type for a living. At first I found it awkward, I kept reaching too far for some keys, and it seemed that I was always missing the right-sided home row by one key. Now I find that I'm not thinking about the keyboard at all, which means it is working well for me. I find the key "touch" to be a little on the firm side, which means that I occasionally miss a letter because I didn't push hard enough, but I think over time I will adjust to that, too. This keyboard does not "click" when you type, which means it is generally quiet. Personally, I prefer the clicking, but for work, I wear a headset and don't hear the keyboard at all, so this is not an issue. Of course, with the need to press the keys harder, there is more thumping than I think I would normally hear when I type. As far as the alignment, it seems excellent. I have rheumatoid arthritis, which is well controlled, but I still have some stiffness and loss of range of motion in my fingers and wrists, and the angles of the keyboard seem to be perfect for me, and I don't feel as much strain as I used to in my wrists after working all day. There is one thing I wish was included, and that is a lighted keyboard. I have never had one, but I have worn the letters off the keys of several keyboards, plus it would just be helpful to be able to see the keys more easily for those times when you don't have bright light or so your eyes don't have to adjust to dim lighting after staring at your bright monitor screen for a long period of time. After less than two weeks, I can already see shiny spots on the space bar and some of the most-used keys, so I know the letters will start wearing off soon. Not a big deal, but a lighted keyboard would be a really nice feature, perhaps an option that could be offered in the future. If you are considering this type of keyboard, I think it is worth the minor aggravation of needing some time to get used to it. My impression is that my hands and wrists will be thankful I made this purchase. UPDATE JULY 22, 2015: The keyboard started acting strangely yesterday morning, some keys not working at all, some keys creating the wrong letter or digit, and the period key seemed to be stuck. I tried to file a claim using the extended warranty, but because it was still under the manufacturer's warranty, they told me to contact Microsoft, and they gave me the wrong phone number for Microsoft. Microsoft wanted the keyboard to be shipped back to them in California, and they would send a replacement AFTER they received this one. I use the keyboard for work, and I don't have a week or more to wait for a replacement. I asked for my money back, which they agreed to do, BUT they then sent me on a wild goose chase trying to make that happen. It seemed that no one with Microsoft had any idea of how to help me and they didn't seem interested at all in helping me, although one person I spoke to at one of the wrong numbers I was given was very kind and helpful in spite of my anger and frustration (thanks, Sachin!), but he couldn't help me either, and he said I needed to contact Amazon. This was definitely NOT Amazon's problem, but you know what? They made it right. No arguments, no questions, no lengthy explanations, no making me feel like I was trying to take advantage of them. I asked for their help, and they apologized for the troubles I had experienced and sent a new keyboard. I have heard people complain about Amazon, but as far as I'm concerned, they are AWESOME. Microsoft and Square Trade Warranties not so much. This keyboard should have lasted longer than a few months, and Microsoft's customer service was horrible when I needed help, so when I have to purchase another keyboard, I probably won't buy another Microsoft product. That said, I have been very happy with the layout of the keyboard and I wish it hadn't malfunctioned so quickly.

Wonderful keyboard, VERYuseful programmable buttons aplenty. Only problem: Intermittent connectivity problem with wireless unit.
Color: Black
I really love this keyboard, having used "ergonomic" keyboards for a great many years now, and using nothing else.
The design is really nice, with the split keyboard being an increasingly rare thing to find these days. Almost no models made by anyone offer such a design, but even if there was more competition of this type, I still think this keyboard is great.
The programmable buttons (MANY of them) are a huge plus. You can program most of them to do all kinds of things, including opening often-used documents or websites for you, or running macros you write.
The buttons that are intended for specific purposes, though, are so well thought-out that I leave most of the button assignments as they are. For example, the buttons dedicated for increasing, decreasing, or muting the speaker/headphone volume are VERY useful very often. And the calculator button also gets a lot of use. Others are the same: very well-thought-out standard assignments doing things I do often (and that presumably most people do often), and once you get used to the fact that now you have a button that does what you want (at first, you'll do it the slower way requiring many more button presses &/or mouse pointer clicks), this keyboards full functionality really shines through for you, and you can't imagine how you could use anything else!
The removable palm rest is another great feature, by the way. Since I use this on my lap, and the bottom of that thing isn't comfortable at all that way, I'm very happy it comes off. And it goes on and off very quickly and easily, in case you want to move it back and forth between a non-organic surface and your lap.
The only problem I have with this keyboard in its wireless version (I have both cabled and wireless ones) is that with many positions I get in, even when the keyboard is VERY close to the receiver plugged into the USB jack on the front of my computer, it won't work at all many times. But when the keyboard is in other positions that have NO line of sight to the receiver, it works fine. It's very particular that way, with some orientations that seem like they'd make for very easy connectivity being impossible to use, while other orientations/distances that seem like they wouldn't work work just fine. Go figure. But once you learn its oddities, you can work around that by moving the keyboard and/or the receiver plugged into the computer so that it works. I do still find it annoying that it seems like the most comfortable positions I want to be in often seem impossible to make work, even with very close proximity. Using the wired version, of course, removes this problem entirely. But I think that the connectivity of the wireless version should not be so touchy and idiosyncratic, and would describe it as a "design flaw." I would have to say that, overall, this isn't enough to warrant deducting a star, though.
Overall, though, I'd say it's a great keyboard, and highly recommend it.

Good all around design with plenty of functionality; best design especially for this price. Very comfortable ergonomics.
Color: Black
The ergonomics of this keyboard are very helpful. I've purchased this same keyboard many times over the years (they wear out). It takes some getting used to, but I love it. It's a more natural position. I'd like it better if there was more space between the two sections of keys, but I would assume they were trying to keep the footprint similar to a regular keyboard for space reasons.
This made a big difference in my neck and shoulder pain and I don't experience any wrist pain like I do when using other keyboards.
I don't know if they still make the wireless version, but I can't recommend that as it wears out even faster than the wired keyboard. And that leads me to the one real drawback - they wear out too quickly. Usually the letters on the keys wear off first, which usually isn't a big issue since I don't look at the keyboard much, but when I do, it's a pain that the keys no longer show the some of the letters. The keys themselves begin to wear out. It seems to me it happens faster than it did years ago. They used to last a few years before they keys stopped responding well (nothing happens when you hit the key and then suddenly you get a jumbled mess), but in recent years, it seems like I need a new keyboard every two years. I suppose that's one way to make sure your product continues to sell. Also, initially the keys are fairly quiet, but it doesn't take long before they're quite noisy.
In comparison to other ergonomic keyboards, this one has the best design in the lower price range. Others with better designs run into the hundreds. I highly recommend this keyboard.

1 Year Later....Still going Great
Color: Black
Ok, I have had this keyboard since June 28, 2015 and today is July 4th, 2016.
Having thought about this keyboard over the last year and then swapping it out for a standard Dell (non ergonomic) keyboard for the last two weeks has made me realize a few and not so few obvious things:
1) Footprint of ergonomic keyboard on desk is larger than most that I can recall. Not a con but keep that in mind if your computer desk is on the smaller side
2) Build Quality. You buy a top tier (Microsoft, Dell, Lenovo, HP, etc) business OR retail keyboard for a decent price, one EXPECTS minimal issues. There are two issues that have cropped up over the course of the last year: a couple of the tabs holding the snap on palm rest have broken off. The palm rest/riser plastic piece is still firmly attached. My guess is that these plastic clips were put in high stress areas. No loss in functionality. The CAPS LOCK LED light that is in the middle doesn't really work anymore. If I hit the caps lock with my left pinkie finger, the light doesn't come on. If I smash the same caps lock with my thumb or index finger, the light comes on and then goes out. Windows 10 always tells me via the popup message if my caps lock is on. No loss in functionality.
3) Key labels have not worn off. The letters are a bit faded but are still clear. The number row above the keys are virtually pristine (and by extension are used for the comparison of the letter keys).
4) This is a very good ergonomic keyboard. Within a couple of days of the swap, my wrist and left finger were starting to have that familiar hurt.
I could go on and on about the specifics that some have posted in other reviews, but I feel that this is relevant to my use after a full year

IMHO: Expensive torture for thumb, hand, and arm
Color: Black
I should have paid more attention to the clearly reasoned (and IMHO *accurate*) negative reviews. After about one week of not-very-intense use I had to stop using this apparently well made but horribly designed keyboard. The use of my right hand and arm became painful. There were three main problems:
#1 The amount of thumb pressure required to actually register the "space" key was way too much to type with any comfort or confidence. Even if I concentrated on always striking the space key so that a space would be inserted into the text or computer code where needed, I found that about 1-in-12 or 1-in-14 attempted spaces would not be inserted. It is terrible that part of one's brain must focus on striking the space key with heavy force; it is even worse that one must proof read each page of text or code to ensure that spaces have been inserted where needed.
#2 The space key is intrinsically badly designed anyway, because one wants this key to be equally welcoming to both the left and right thumbs. It isn't. I found that my right thumb worked best, requiring unnatural contortions to ensure spaces were inserted where needed.
#3 In general, I found that the $10 keyboard Dell included with my latest XPS desktop requires a more comfortable amount of force for ALL of the keys, not just the space key. This could be because the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 for Business requires greater downward movement of the keys for a stroke to be registered.
Problems #1 and #2 are so severe that I found this keyboard simply unusable. This is quite an indictment for a way-above-average-cost keyboard that is allegedly designed and built with proper ergonomics in mind. I am astounded that so many users find this a comfortable keyboard. By the way, during more than half of my PC and computer keyboard use, which dates back to the late 1970s, I have actually used (and preferred) Logitech and especially Microsoft ergonomic keyboards. This is the first ergonomic keyboard I have ever used that I have found to be a thinly disguised implement of torture for thumb, hand, and arm.
I now have some appreciation for the feelings of the other one-star and two-star reviewers when they read the patronizing remarks of the many keyboarders who find this device comfortable. Some seem to pooh-pooh (usually in patronizing terms) those of us who find this one of the most wretched keyboards we have ever encountered. It is a little hard to believe we sufferers happened to receive slightly defective devices. The complaint I offer can be found too often in the reviews for our complaint to occur as a result of a minor or rare manufacturing defect.
On the plus side, the build quality appears to be terrific.
