I never have but I would sure try! Take a piece that isn't so woody and snip it, cut all the leaves off, dip it in rooting hormone and some sandy dirt, and try it. Heck do 5 or 6 at a time cause maybe you'll get 1 out of 6. Happy gardening.

Please tell me how to root lilac bushes. I saw a show on TV where they spoke about rooting lilac branch cuttings.
