I started a few last spring and they root easily. Stick the bottom one inch in well draning mix and keep moist. Doesn't take too long to start to root, a few weeks maybe I didn't really pay much attention to be honest.
I have one that I was able to get to color up! I love poinsettias, even if they don't color up. Great houseplants!
