    I am very very new at this, so aologies if this is in the wrong section.

    Can I take a cutting from a Russian Vine and a Honeysuckle?

    I am going to be moving soon and thought I might be able to do it this way instead of going and buying more.

    If I can take a cutting, what do I need to do? I have some garden scissors (I knew I needed them)

    The best thing to do is take several cuttings of each, altho' you'll only need to keep one of the russian vine!!!! :eek: cut a stem just below a leaf axil,Leaving a couple of leaf axils attached above, remove the leaves at the axil and push into compost. keep moist.
    try looking at this for simple instructions , easier to follow than mine. http://www.greenfingers.com/articledisplay.asp?id=285
