If you can find the root or a node just stick it in water and it should grow, or at least survive lol. It might take a long time to show new growth

I take off the bottom 4 leaves and stick that in soil. The rest I curl up on top of the soil, trying to keep the nodes side down (might be impossible to get all of them) and then I sprinkle pumice rock on top to help them root.
