How big are the branches around? I'm thinking if you have them in a vase they can't be that big. If they arent then you best bet is to dip them in some rooting hormone and plant them in pots, or stick them in a bubbler and wait for roots. In case you are unfamiliar with bubblers, it's a terrific way of rooting things .. just get a trashcan, cheap aquarium pump some tubing and an airstone. Fill the trashcan with water and stick the tubing with the airstone attached and the other end to the aquarium air pump and stick your cuttings in it. It keeps the water very oxygenated and keeps it from going stagnant. In my experience, greenwood works best in a bubbler but brown wood does ok too. Seems to make roots appear faster.
