When is the best time to plant rubarb , I know you can split a currently growing plant, but is this best down in June?

I have just finished pulling a good crop from my plant that hasn't been split for about 3 years. Was very ruthless with it yesterday and chopped it up into about 6 good sized chunks and transplanted it. This morning I took a look at it and even the wilted ones from yesterday have perked up. Go for it now after you have taken what you can but always leave a few leaves on each section of the ones you split..
