Morphology

honeysuckled = honeysuckle (transparent) = honeysuckle + ed

The adjective is formed by adding '-ed' to the noun 'honeysuckle', but 'honeysuckle' itself is a lexicalized compound (honey + suckle) whose internal structure and meaning may not be fully transparent to learners.

Etymology

Honeysuckled comes from the plant name honeysuckle, which joins honey 'sweet' and suckle 'to feed'. So a honeysuckled path or fence is simply one 'covered with honeysuckle' vines and flowers.
