Look at this, a stem broke off my large plant, I was outside so I stuck it in the ground and forgot about it, look at this 5 weeks later.

It's what they do, Doris

That's why I tell people I give cuttings too, don't throw any cuttings way. They grow back into a beautiful tree.

I bet it would have died if I had followed the rules, put the powder on the cut end,used good plant soil , water gently and keep out of direct sun for awhile until it is bigger LOL
