The soft growth usually roots anywhere it touches the earth. Have a look around you can usually find a piece that has rooted itself ;)
Pull it up with some roots and plant it where you want it ...easy peasey, and just what I did earlier this year  :D

I remeber liberating a cutting  overhanging a garden that I walked the dog past, stuck it in a milk bottle on the widow ledge and it put out plenty of root so planted it and it has done really well.
You can layer it easily as well.
