Mt Hood Rhizome for next spring. This is a 4 ft rhizome running about 1 inch in the ground from the base and popping up. Next spring I will cut the rhizome at the base and pull it out of the ground. I will cut the 4 ft rhizome into 3 to 4 inch section. Each section will product a new plant in 2012.
