Default Hydrangea cuttings

Has anyone successfully rooted Hydrangea cutting taken at this time of
the year?

I have a semi-double H. macrophylla (label lost, but a Japanese name)
which has never struck from cuttings taken in July, August, or
September. *As the buds on it are just starting to break, I wondered if
cuttings taken now might have some success.

I took some three years ago in November. Three out of ten rooted and
have grown nicely. I know that is not January but it has to be worth
a try; you've nothing to lose except a few sticks
