Hi Diane, Welcome!

Both Trumpet Vine (Campsis radicans) and Honeysuckle Honeysuckles (Lonicera) are deciduous vines and will usually lose their leaves in the fall but I'm sure climatic/weather conditions as well as insect/pest damage can cause early leaf drop as well.

There are fungal diseases that affect Lonicera: http://homeguides.sfgate.com/h... and I wonder if perhaps your plant might be suffering from fungal leaf blight? https://www.google.com/search?...

This page gives information on control of the leaf blight: http://nac.unl.edu/documents/d...

Hopefully others more knowledgeable with Lonicera will be able to offer advice and tips.
