If your intent is to root them, I would probably use beefier cuttings than the green ends. If you have any cuttings with grayish bark, they will probably root easier. they will look like small logs. Some cuttings will root in water, others will rot. I would use rooting hormone, and put in pot of barely moist soil, then put the whole thing in a large baggie to hold humidity. Remove any leaves but last two or three for end cuttings. If the leaves are large, cut them in half. Place in good light and warm temps. No direct sun -- will cook.
