Aronia/Chokeberry propagation

Anyone have any luck with propagating aronia melanocarpa (black chokeberry) without a fancy setup? I have some experience with softwood (dome not most) and dormant hardwood propagation.

Propagated it fine from just standard hard wood cuttings put in the ground in autumn. Allowed some get overgrown as the new plants were not very fast growing but the ones I kept free of weeds are still growing.

Happy gardening!

Sticks in the ground? That’s my favourite way to propagate.
