I have had the most success with the method my father taught me.
Dig a trench where you can bend a branch down, pin it and bury
it. You can scrape the bark a little and apply some rooting
hormone, but not necessary. I wait a year, but you can check
for roots in 6 months.
i'll have to see if i can get any branches to the ground. sounds
like a pretty easy method.

All I do is add a handful of dirt and place a brick or rock on then
check back 2 o3 years latter. Cut it of the main plant and remove a
year latter.
