As long as the cutting is still plump (not dessicated) its alive and may still grow. I treated some cuttings earlier this year with Rooting Hormone and some produced roots and took months to leaf out. They need to be kept warm (70-80 deg F) and humid (70-85% RH), but keep out of direct sunlight (it may "cook" the cutting). The cuttings needs to be kept from drying out, I sealed the ends with wax, but a pruning sealer would also work.
Good Luck.
