  • Rhubarb, which way up?

    Now please don't laugh,
    I bought 2 packs of rhubarb, from a chainstore type place, so they were wrapped in plastic, not potted up.
    One had a couple of shoots so that was okay, the other one, when I moved the compost around a bit, it just looked like a block of stumpy wood with no signs of life.
    i have sort of laid it on it's side in some compost to see if any life comes from either end, but so far after 3 weeks no joy, is there any way to tell one end from the other if I try planting it.

    sunymay.

            Okay, so you don't all think it's just a lump of firewood, there's still hope yet?
            It's just the other one is racing away, I thought this might be dead.
