The mother tree had a pretty large pruning done. So, I figured, why not propagate from it?

I've never had any success propagating trees of this type. is there any trick to it?

This is my first time. I'll let you know what happens. My practices were pretty simple all in all - try to get some material that's in the transition to woody from fresh green growth when taking cuttings. Pop those into water immediately. Trim stems down to size and reduce the foliage, to fit in your prop greenhouse. Then dip in rooting hormone powder, shake/knock off excess, and plant.

No idea if anything will take, hahaha. Here's to hoping! I'll post updates if anything cool happens.
