Impacts of this species 

Lonicera morrowii can grow in dense thickets that prevent other native plants from establishing themselves. It invades not well established areas, and prevents successional stages to occurr. It can hypridize with native L. tatarica to produce hybrid L. x bella, which is also extremely invasive. It is often quickly spread by birds that favor their fruits that ripen in mid-summer.
