The common indoor houseplant.

You can cut off the green tops and root those. You can also cut the canes into pieces of virtually any size from 2" long on up and root those.

The cuttings should root in water or soil. Be sure to let them sit out on the counter for about 24 hours to callous the cut ends before you try to root them.
