The original plant was getting very 'leggy' with a long bare stem at the bottom and the leaves at the top. I noticed that my garden honeysuckle, which I have grown in a container has also gone 'leggy' and was wondering if I could use the same method to start off another one. The honeysuclkle, is growing on a trellis and is about 5 or 6 years old now. and has around four stems and they are all looking the same. Thanks Richard.
