Figure 1: Site 2 has highest density of L. maackii.
Figure 2: 2023 trends; Honeysuckle plots experience slightly cooler maximum temperatures later in spring. Daily maximum (Max) and minimum (Min) temperatures of Honeysuckle (H) and non-Honeysuckle (NH) plots. Polynomial (Poly.) trendlines included.
Figure 3: Temperature differences between groups are significant. MaxNH-MaxH is the daily max. Honeysuckle temperatures subtracted from max. non-Honeysuckle temperatures. MinNH-MinH is the daily min. Honeysuckle temperatures subtracted from min. non-Honeysuckle temperatures. Polynomial (Poly.) trendlines are included.

Figure 4a: Significantly more ephemeral flowering and fruiting under forest canopy. Total first flowers (Sum FFl), total flowers (Sum TFl), and total fruits (Sum TFr) of C. virginica in non-Honeysuckle plots over spring season.
Figure 4b: Significantly less ephemeral flowering and fruiting under Honeysuckle. Total first flowers (Sum FFl), total flowers (Sum TFl), and total fruits (Sum TFr) of C. virginica in Honeysuckle plots over spring season.
Figure 5a: Ephemeral flowering ranges are significantly longer under the forest canopy. First flowering and total flowering ranges of C. virginica in Honeysuckle vs. non-Honeysuckle plots.
Figure 5b: Ephemeral flowering is higher under forest canopy, fruiting is higher under Honeysuckle. Percentage of flowering and fruiting C. virginica in Honeysuckle vs. non-Honeysuckle plots.
