    In this heat many flowers are simply not lasting as long as in cooler years.
    The Lonicera...honeysuckle will be fine.

    Do you mean the holes in the leaves? If so it looks like Leafcutter bees.
    Also needs more water.

    Give it two buckets full of water every other day for a week. Then two buckets twice a week for the rest of the summer. 
    You cannot overwater a honeysuckle planted in the ground.
