Yes, of course...they are so easy from cuttings.
The cutting must callous before planting...if not,
they will rot. I've had cutting sitting in shade for several month and it will sometimes develope a flower spike.
It's because the latent bud is in the branch already.

Guess I needed to wait longer: several months, eh. Ok.

I'm not sure if I'm going to plant the branch in the ground now...or wait until spring...if we have a lot of rain (which we need badly) because of El Niño, the cutting may rot.

So you made another one, right? I had some trouble with base rot on cuttings, & was told to let them air harden before planting. But the name for these I most love is Buddha tree as they can live out of the ground (eg when knocked by wind) for several years on their own inner resources!
