Can I grow a new tayberry plant from a broken cane?

Hi all

Around a month ago we broke one of the canes from our tayberry plant (we've only had it a year, so has not reached the prolific stage yet!).  A bit gutted, we popped it into some water and it has been there since.  It still seems to be alive...  The leaves still look healthy and the buds/shoots have been growing.  

My question is can I just go ahead and plant this in soil now, and if so how?  I appreciate I could just give it a go, but space is quite limited in our garden and if it is unlikely to work then I'd rather go ahead and just buy a new plant.  If there's a pretty good chance it sill grow on and be healthy, then I'll give it my best shot! 

Many thanks

Max
