Plumeria rooting questions?

I'm getting ready to prune a limb off my potted Plumeria and want to root it. It's about 4 ft. The end has an inflorescence and two branches starting. I'm in a growing zone 10.

I'd like to start it as soon as the cut heals.

a) Do I need to remove all the leaves?

b) What do I do about the inflorescence?

Thanks in advance.

    The easiest plant to root ever. I have branches break off my trees, fall to the ground and root. Now that it's growing season you can just cut the tip, sink it in soil and it will grow. No need to remove the flowers, buds or foliage. Just keep it in partial sun and soil moist.
