I have two honeysuckle vines growing on either side of my south facing trellis. They're about 4 years old. There's an old Maple tree to the west of the trellis, so that side is always a little behind compared to the east side.

This year some of the leaves are turning black and/or spotty and it doesn't look so good (mainly on the west side). It has been a very rainy season here in northern Maine so far.

Do I have some sort of mildew? What can I do about it? Or should I just sit it out until the sun comes back into our lives?

Thanks for any help you can give.

Thanks.

They're blooming to beat the band, but look a little weary. I'm hoping once it dries up they'll come around.

Thanks again.

It's already looking better. I don't know if it actually is better, or if the moral support you have given is working on me :^)

I've given them a close look and I don't see aphids.

Should I be cutting them back? I've pruned a bit, but nothing drastic. They're getting more than a bit out of hand. Could I cut them now? I would LOVE to get them back in some sort of organized chaos if I could.
