I have broken a fairly large branch from my orchid plant. Can I put it in water and expect it to grow roots?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to save this branch?

Forget it - Orchids have very strict soil requirments. Most actually grow in tree tops living off the bark of the tree. Matter of fact look at your soil in the pot. Very organic and loose and crumbly - bark nuggets probably.........

You can attempt - nothing ventured , nothing gained but I doubt it will take.
Reply:There is a product called root tone. It is supposed to grom roots from good branches. Try ir out
