I would recommend different types of jasmine and honeysuckle.
I think coral honeysuckle is native to my area. Does it attract the most pollinators?? There are keystone species. Species of plants that feed more insects than others. I'm trying to plant native plants that will feed the greatest number of insects! I want to have plenty of larva for the baby birds!

Yes. The honeysuckle brings in butterflies, moths, bees, and birds to include hummingbirds.
There will be a time that every plant is at its prime in flower production or attraction.
A recommendation would be to plant a mixture of plants throughout your garden that reach prime bloom at different times to continuously draw the bugs and birds. Maybe one vine started on one side and something different on the other side.

Yes, I think I'll plant the coral honeysuckle on the arbor and I will also plant passion flower vine.
