Re: success stories/propagation using potato

I virtually never see any traffic on hort.net's woodies and propagation
lists so I'm sending out my little success story to get things rolling.

Here's a question I've been meaning to ask. On a recent Gardening By theYard (HGTV), a method of propagation was mentioned where the cutting to be propagated was inserted into a potato after first having made a hole slightly smaller than the cutting. No further details were given other than to plant the entire potato-cutting.

I realize this sounds rather Jerry Baker-esque, but yet, I think: hmmmm, maybe that just might work. Has anyone ever heard of this, much less tried it? I usually find infomation on GBTY to be relatively reliable (Paul James humor aside).
