I am a total idiot about gardening, just to warn you.

I had to cut down a old plum tree on our property (SF Bay Area). I
didn't want to do it because it made the most incredible plums I've ever
had - they were like mangoes. It never made many, and seemed to have off
years. But it had to go.

The question is, can I try to grow it from cuttings? I don't have any
seeds, unfortunately. I'd love to try to keep a sprig going and
eventually a new tree. Any chance of this?
