The ideal time to propagate tatarian honeysuckle by cutting is during the autumn, as the temperatures are milder and the plant is entering dormancy, which allows cuttings to establish roots without the stress of extreme heat or cold. This timing leverages the natural growth cycle of tatarian honeysuckle, ensuring cuttings benefit from the cooler, but not freezing, conditions optimal for root development.

After rooting, which may take a few weeks, gradually acclimatize the new tatarian honeysuckle plant to less humid conditions by removing the plastic cover for longer periods. Once the tatarian honeysuckle plant is established and showing new growth, transplant it into a larger pot or your garden. Tatarian honeysuckle prefers well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade. Prune regularly to encourage bushy growth and limit the spread, as it can become invasive. Water the young plant consistently until it is well-established.
