I was told that if I plant my rhizomes vertically they would not spread as much but still grow tall and healthy. I was wondering if anyone had tried this, and if so could you please tell me if it worked.
 
I planted 2 vertically last year. They both rotted in the ground.

I planted the next 2 at a 45° angle. They rotted also. The other 6 at 45° lived.

Planted 5 new ones this year, horizontally, and they're doing great so far. 2 months old.
Just my 2c.
