i have mine in a large container a, then burried in ground to keep under control

 

The best time to take cuttings is once the flowering season has ended, late August to September. Take 4” to 6” long softwood, also known as semi-ripe cuttings. Using a sharp knife, make a cut just below a joint or node. hope this helps

 

depending how big the roots are it can take several years for roots to decompose, first the stump and roots will die but takes a long time for shoots to rot, you really need to get the stump out and cut any offending shoots out, as its in lawn not sure you can use anything such as root out as it may kill your lawn to ;o((
