You can propagate honeysuckle by seed, either saving seeds from your own vine or buying them. The seeds need to be cold to germinate, so you can sow them in the fall or start them indoors, mixing seeds and compost together and refrigerating for about 12 weeks. For both cuttings and propagating honeysuckle by layering, you can use rooting hormone to stimulate new root growth. Find the powder at your local nursery and dip the layering vine or new cutting in it before planting in soil. Germination Procedure: Soak seeds in a glass of water for 24 hrs. Surface sow the seeds 1-16 an inch in the fall for spring sprouts. Otherwise, place seeds in moist paper towel, wrap the whole thing into a ziplock bag and place them in the freezer for 2 months to simulate winter conditions and break seed dormancy. Remove, and surface sow the seeds, lightly covering with an ultra thin layer of soil on top and sow when warm.
