leucadendron - how to grow from cuttings?

I was recently given 2 leucadendron "red tulip" for the community garden I am planting for the neighborhood here in San Francisco. Sadly, someone stepped on one of them and broke off three branches, about 8" long.

I have read that they are hard to propagate, and that the rooting mix should be 50/50 milled pine bark and vermiculite - is it worth trying? If so, what's the best way - water and light requirements? I hate to waste these bits and would be very happy to have more leucadendrons in the garden.

thanks :)
