Have you considered learning to graft? I learned grafting and budding techniques as a teenager and have usually gotten good results. I found Citrus to be among the easier plants to graft, however timing is very important and needs to be matched to the type of budding/grafting being done. In the beginning I would graft plants I didn't wish to propagate simply for the purpose of developing grafting/budding skills.
I found Citrus, plums, apples and pears to be successful about 90% of the time. My record with persimmons was abysmal however, even the successes failed in a few years due to incompatibility between the Diospyros virginiana rootstock and Asian cultivar Diospyros kaki scions.
Learning to bud/graft is a bit like learning to ride a bicycle, the skill is retained rather well.
