I just bought and planted orange star flower, I love it, but in a wind storm one of the stalks broke off. Can I re-sprout it by planting the broken stalk directly back into the dirt or placing in water?

I would place in water until roots grow. Then use rooting hormone and plant in the ground.
Sorry to hear about the breakage. That is frustrating. Unlike most plants, I never had luck starting a broken one of the orange stars in water or dirt...they usually get moldy and die. Could be I just didn't do it right.
I would put it in water until you see roots at least 3 to 4 inches long. Then plant it in new soil with a growing compound.
