    Morning all, I've noticed new buds coming out on my honeysuckle, but I haven't cut it back as yet, normally do it later next month. Is it too late to do it now once it's starting growing again? Thanks.

    No , I would cut it back as you normally do . The fact that it has started into growth early won’t affect pruning timing. :smile:

    Hi try and prune now , its quite typical of honeysuckle for buds to swell in January but if the weather gets cold again they will stop
