Jasmine and honeysuckle growing together

Hi
I’ve come to a garden which has a very old honeysuckle growing up a wall and there seems to be a jasmine literally growing out of the old stump of the honeysuckle. This jasmine just pushes out leggy branches and has not flowered for the 5 summers I’ve been here; what should I do? It annoys me that it gives so little. The garden is small, so I want the walls to have something really lovely on them. The think stem of the honeysuckle isn’t very attractive but I’ve got a clematis growing up that now, however, the jasmine gets in the way. Any advice?
