Azaleas are cake supposedly. I have never done it, but I had a "casade" branch on a crappy one sprout roots all over and it was peeled back or even under the soil so I believe it. In Fred Galle's masterpiece book on azaleas, he says it is common place for people to bury branches to have 1 shrub go on and on.
