If there was a really stumpy bit of crown on it maybe ...
See if they sell plants - Morrisons do lots of plants/bulbs etc
Too early. But when buying, be aware that sometimes a pot with what
looks like a well-developed plant may turn out to be two or three much
younger roots. I bought one from the greengrocer's to fill a gap last
year, and found I'd got three: all quite healthy, though small, but I
really only wanted one. For some reason I had been suspicious, but the
kid behind the counter clearly had no idea what I was talking about,
so I took the pot anyway. It didn't matter to me, but if you're
starting from scratch, it would be a nuisance.
