I'm in Cleveland, Ohio. I have a new Japanese Honeysuckle the was planted
outdoors last May. About 3 to 4 weeks ago, when the weather was starting to
get below freezing, I decided to cut a couple of branches off and try to
"root" them in a glass of water. I read you leave some leaves on, but they
fell off within a week. I tried to slice the bottom of the stem segments,
which is where I figured the roots would start. What I have after 3 weeks,
is some kind of growth coming out the pieces of branch, perhaps where the
leaves were (?). I see nothing coming out of the bottom that looks
"rootish". Can I somehow use these growths to start new plants? I want to
grow then indoors, by a sunny window, at least for the time being (winter).
If I can use them, how do I plant them? Here are two pics of them I took
about 5 days ago, the growths still look healthy, but I don't want to wait
too long if now is the right time to plant them. Or should I wait yet?

Thanks much in advance for any advice, as I never really worked with plants
much.
