Never done this before with this tree.
Under what conditions
(time of year, specific part of growth cycle, heat & humidity, type of soil)
should cuttings be taken & planted . . .
And, how to choose which stems to use for the cuttings?
(Am limited in the amount of stems I can choose from this young tree.)

The best way to root cuttings from the Desert Willow tree?
I do root cuttings all of the time. You want a piece that is semi-woody, not all new growth and not all old growth, a tender piece. I dip into rooting hormone and place into a pot with potting soil and keep watered. You should see growth in about three weeks. Remember do not let the potting soil dry out.
