Doubtful Azz but certainly not impossible, at least you have tried and if it does not work nothing is lost.
The suckered offspring I mentioned earlier might be the best option, look out for a couple or three but don't take them until about September and plant them at once.

Doing it that way will not ruin the donor plant which can only be a good thing.

Dip them in Rooting powder and put in a small pot to root.
