honeysuckle

My honeysuckle is on a south facing wall, flowering but some leaves are falling and it looks very sad.

    Does it need a drink?

    Honeysuckle often gets aphid attacks this time of year - any sign of beasties?
    Did you feed it earlier in the year?
    If neither of the above, any chance of a pic of the whole plant and another where the leaves are falling?
