I've had the same happen several times when losing a cutting finding new growth on both sides of the dead cutting coming up from below the surface. I have also had several instances of where stems have rotted at the soil level leaving a brown central stem going up to the upper cuttings which continued to be green. I would pull them up to recut and try again only to find active root growth supporting the plant. Go figure. bob
