I appreciate your nice, calm way of speaking. We have one of these honeysuckle and the humming birds nest in it. I think I will try this and grow them an extra home for the summer.
That's a beautiful variety! I suspect that's what I have too but I took ours from a cutting years ago at my parent's home. They bought the house and never knew the variety.
Hello Just back from a visit to my friend an 92 year old whose only girlfriend his wife loved honeysuckle. I have some in my garden and in large pots I will transplant some for her grave. I love your video. Love from the NW Coast of Ireland
I have five mature specimens growing up my trees in NC. The hummingbirds and insect pollinators visit continually all summer. A vigorous beautiful addition.
Finally! Someone who explains how to take cuttings. PS I live in England, UK but have honeysuckle I want to prune to thicken out and get more plants whilst doing so
You should be able to but make sure to give them plenty of light in the winter if you have them actively growing indoors. Alternatively you could take hardwood cuttings and leave them outdoors to root over the winter.
so, after the roots grow out in a month, are you ready at that point to stick them in the ground? And, do they have to have a trellis, like a tree or a fence to grow up?
A trellis, fence, or other structure is best. Ours is climbing on a crape myrtle tree as a trellis. I'm waiting on the roots to develop more before I plant outdoors. I may grow the rooted cuttings in a pot until next year before I plant in the ground.
It's "soil conditioner" which is finely chopped bark chips. I would probably recommend going with sand or mixing peat in with the bark chips. I think the bark chips themselves are drying out too fast.
Outside in a sheltered location that way they acclimate to the seasons. If unusual weather comes bring them inside an unheated shed or garage temporarily to protect them. Generally if a plant is hardy in your area you can leave it outdoors once rooted.
Have you had success with doing this method before? Do you have videos or pictures of your previous success? And can you do an update video when they have roots at the bottom?
@Growing The Home Garden Thank you so much. I have heard it's nearly impossible to route this from cuttings. So it is interesting to see someone do it.
Here is the first one with roots. I'm going to give the others more time to form and grow roots but here is the first sign of progress. ua-cam.com/users/shortsE7f2T982bYU

Thank you! Sounds like a great idea!
Thank you for an excellent presentation and clear instructions on what to do. I watched several other videos and nada! Much appreciated.
Thanks for that. Bought one yesterday at the nursery, then found one along my side fence so doing this today
I have a two-year-old Major Wheeler Honeysuckle in my garden and I love it. I am going to prpogate it and share it with my friends and neighbors.

The native honeysuckle is one of my favorites for exactly the reasons you mention!
Finally! Someone who explains how to take cuttings. PS I live in England, UK but have honeysuckle I want to prune to thicken out and get more plants whilst doing so
Thank you! Just took a bunch of cuttings. Large honeysuckle young branches. I have a good feeling. 👍
Thank you! I’ve been struggeling with the native species we have here in Norway! This should work!
Wow so beautiful planting. Good share thanks ❤🎉❤🎉❤
I have several nectar plants for hummingbirds. By far, Major Wheeler is their favorite. The next plant they visit is the Cigar Plant. 💐
The love this honeysuckle for sure! The cigar plant makes sense too.
Is it possible to grow cuttings indoors over winter so they are ready to plant by the spring
You should be able to but make sure to give them plenty of light in the winter if you have them actively growing indoors. Alternatively you could take hardwood cuttings and leave them outdoors to root over the winter.
Could it be propagated from mature woody vines? I was given many clippings and they are attached to strong woody stems - thank you for your video!!
Those will probably work just fine.
Hardwood is usually done in fall for overwintering
so, after the roots grow out in a month, are you ready at that point to stick them in the ground? And, do they have to have a trellis, like a tree or a fence to grow up?
It's a vine !!!
@@bogtrottername7001 so, I hear you saying, “yes”

I will have to try that, mine is an Arnold red - hot pink .!it doesn’t have a lot of scent.
Thanks for this. Are you using bark chips or mulch? Is there any soil in the bark chips?
It's "soil conditioner" which is finely chopped bark chips. I would probably recommend going with sand or mixing peat in with the bark chips. I think the bark chips themselves are drying out too fast.
Thanks
Thanks for the info David. Once they root and you decide to transplant them to a bigger pot, do you keep them inside or outside?
Outside in a sheltered location that way they acclimate to the seasons. If unusual weather comes bring them inside an unheated shed or garage temporarily to protect them. Generally if a plant is hardy in your area you can leave it outdoors once rooted.
Thanks for the video! Do you propagate these indoors or out? Started mine tonight !
These are outdoors on a north facing front porch. It gets a good bit of shade.
If you take cuttings in September and keep them in a warm, well lit room indoors, will they form roots ?
They can but you will need to keep them indoors until warm weather returns. It would be hard to acclimate them to winter temperatures at that point
@@Growingthehomegarden Thanks for both your help and the promptness of your reply.
I'm in zone 7b. Can I leave the pot outside over the winter?
Would you share which liquid you dipped stems in for root success
Have you had success with doing this method before? Do you have videos or pictures of your previous success? And can you do an update video when they have roots at the bottom?
Yes this method can work. I don't have pictures to share at the moment but I will do update on it in a few weeks.

@@Pawpawtreesnaw it's super easy go for it! All about the right time of year
is that what is called a corral honeysuckle here in Texas?
It might be. Lonicera sempervirens is what this is. It could be the same thing in your area. There may be hybrids that look similar.
Yes, it is
@@ChrisSmithFW That is about the only vine I would ever recommend to normal people.
Hello, I'd like to know what region this plant is native to, i.e. what state are you in?
I'm in Tennessee zone 7.
Hey I just took cuttings of mine too ❤.
Great timing!
What is your rooting substance (medicine) called
I have this variety - it is called Arnold red .
Youst to suck on these red flowers as a child it's like honey water. So sweet!
🥰😍🤩😘
Suggestion: Change to an external mic and/or adjust the volume on your edits. Max volume is too low in a somewhat noisy environment.
Thanks Robert. That is something I need to do. I've been adjusting the volume on the edit side but a mic would work better.
Really clearly and I'm an absolute idiot when listening to these things
That looks like my pink lemonade
