I have a large clump of ruhbarb that I was intending to lift
during the winter, split it up and distribute some to friends,
leaving it out in the frost for a bit, then replanting.

However, with all the rain and mild weather, it is now begining
to show signs of growth, so can I still split it up?


My rhubarb is beginning to grow so with frosts forecast, is it worth
covering it with fleece? It is in a corner between a south facing
wooden fence and a west facing low brick wall. It is exposeto SW or
southerly winds. I am in Fareham on the S Coast (beteween Portsmouth
and Southampton, about a mile from Portsmouth Horbour (tidal water)
