I don't suppose she left some nice, simple notes around about how to do this, did she?

No. She’s been gone since 1971. But, I remember her starting her “slips” in water until they showed roots, or sticking them in damp sand until they took root. I’m sure she had plenty of failures, but she had enough successes that everybody considered her a master gardener, even though she never had a class in horticulture. She never heard of “rooting compound”, or any special way of taking a cutting. She just did it.
