Del,
I haven't tried rooting Evans cuttings, but in one of the earlier 
discussions on the Evans, Bernie Nikolai indicated that it was pretty easy 
to propagate from root cuttings.    Mine regularly throws up a dozen or so 
suckers every year for 5-10 feet out away from the original trunk, so with 
this vole damage, I'll bet yours will be suckering like crazy this year.
