I helped myself to a few wild honeysuckle cuttings at the end of June,
and popped them in ordinary compost, in little clay pots, two per pot.
There were ten, two didn't take, six are growing well and two a little
less well, but certainly alive.

Provided that they are not saturated with water they are very hardy.
You did well to strike so many wild cuttings they can be a bit tetchy.
A sheltered spot outside would be my choice unless it gets very cold.

Martin, pure luck! I just picked them while out with the dog, then
popped them into compost. Six continue to grow well, with the other two
struggling slightly.

Thanks for the advice.
