Bootsy's Lady Banksia Rose Bush

In my mother-in-law's yard is a beautiful, huge Lady Banksia rose bush. It is about 20 years old and has been left to its own devices for much of that time. It is as big as a mid-sized SUV and produces tons of pretty yellow flowers. I would love to root a piece to this bush, or in some other way reproduce it, for my own yard, but I don't know how to go about it. Any suggestions?

I truly enjoy working with other small business owners to improve their businesses. Growing businesses mean more jobs for our communities. Genealogy is a passion. I've been researching history and my family's place in it since I was a teenager. It has been an interesting and enriching past time and profession. I love plants and watching them grow. My grandparents taught me some about growing your own food and preserving it against the winter months. Two of my three sets of grandparents were able to grow enough to support themselves and others. I am very concerned that the present generation, myself included, may not remember how to be more self sufficient during hard economic times.
