Sakura Cherry and for most plants ?

(Please remember to snip!)

In MY experience members of the genus Prunus are fairly
difficult to root from cuttings. Seeds need a sizeable cold
dormancy.) Cuttings need a stronger rooting hormone that most
of us can find in the garden shops, or if we can find it really
justify its purchase since we'll use it so seldom and it has a
VERY short shelf life. I certainly would not attempt a large
cutting, in any case.

That said, as with all/many/most cuttings, spring is the best
time to try.
