I have successfully rooted bits in water.

Hi Pam, how does that work. Do you take a clipping and then bury it in the
soil?

The quickest way I have found is layering, just pin with a loop of wire or
weight with a small flat stone a section of new growth across the top of a
pot of compost,the shoot will then root down into the pot,when this has
happened just cut the new plant away from the original plant.

I just cut bits off and stand them in a jar of water until rooted,
then pot them up. You could try potting some bits straight away and
see which does best.
Good luck. It is hard to kill!
