A neighbor was cutting back their plumeria and gave me a full branch. I managed to cut several cuttings for rooting but not sure what to do with this one. Keeping it as is and later planting it will make it too heavy on one side. Still learning about plumerias so wondering what others would do with such a branch. Should I cut it into single cuttings, just cut a portion of it, keep the trunk for a mid-cut? I added arrows in case anyone has any thoughts for where to cut, keep and the like.

I also added another photo of a couple of left over branches . Can these be salvaged for rooting?

The last two photos is another one that has three upright branches close together. What would you do with this one? Make single cuttings? Leave as is?

Wouldn't rooting happen easier if at least one of the branches retained the top to leaf?

You can keep the multibranch as is to be rooted if you want an instant mini tree. However, you will probably need sticks/brace (similar to your sticks) to help it stay upright. And maybe big bricks around the base as additional reinforcement to keep it upright. You can also try to root them as cuttings similar as you outlined in the photo. Preferably 6 to 8 inches in length!

You can try rooting the others too. The middle cuttings without any leaves will take longer to root so patience is a key. I think it's because it is trying to do two things at once, it is trying to root and grow one or more branches per tip.

Yes, the branches with tips would develop roots faster.
