Just scored a rhubarb in a p ot. When to plant? Soil temp?

too excited, I've always wanted one. Now I will have to move the peony to make room!

just don't know when to do it.

They're very hardy, do you know if your new one has been hardened off?

I don't know. I will have to assume not. It is in a closed plastic container and a few stems/leaves have popped out the top. It was inside the store, not in their nursery area.
I also bought a container like this of asparagus. The list that Chuck shared shows the temperature for soil as 50F so I have another couple of weeks before I can plant those.

Needs hardening off then by the sounds of it.

Good drainage, and if you've got any lime it'll like that:)
