Exotic bush honeysuckles are upright, multi-stemmed, oppositely branched, deciduous shrubs that range in height from 2 m to 6 m.
The exotic bush honeysuckles are increasingly common throughout much of the eastern and mid-western United States and south-central Canada where they have contributed to reduced richness and cover of native herb communities and to reduced tree regeneration in early to mid-successional forests.
Reproduction of the bush honeysuckles is almost entirely by seed (Converse 1985), although greenwood and hardwood cuttings have been used extensively in their commercial propagation (Wyman 1977).
