Default Getting cuttings to root....

Another project -- We have some honeysuckle shrubs that are just rabid
growers. I've seen these things cut down to the ground in the spring then
grow to 10 feet by the end of the summer. The birds love the shrubs because
they provide both shelter and food (little red berries).

I've TRIED to get some seeds of honeysuckle shrubs -- everyone is either out
or they want to sell a tiny packet for an outrageous price. So I'm thinking
trying my hand at getting some cuttings to root.

I've never really tried this, so I thought I'd hit the collective up for
some suggestions. Can I just cut some stems, put some rooting powder on the
ends and stick 'em in the ground?
