I Can't see any particular problem with layering into pots, other than
needed to keep the pots moist. But you might like to look into
air-layering.

You should have no problems with cuttings taken in the autumn, about 9
inches long and remove thorns and the bottom bud, You could root them
directly into pots.
Thinking of layering, What about making a hole top and bottom of a pop
bottle sliting the plastic between and filling with compost and
putting the stem into it , tape it and leave till the roots show
against the pastic.

Funnily enough, I was just musing on Stewart's post and wondering where
air-layering begins and layering-into-a-pot ends - I think you've just
answered that! ;-)
