Good ole seed tends to work no matter what Joe
I have not had luck rooting from "wild" material, but the behaviour of good selections in this sense is certainly different. Vigorous resprouters very fast is a good hint. But to be a hint, you need to see and compare a good number of them at once. Othwerwise everything is subjective and no real selection happens.
Reason to post the rooted cutting story was mainly to show that, contrary to what may be read online in some places, it is very possible, and it happens every day in huge numbers.
