Rhubarb
Rhubarb
Our rhubarb got off to a hard start in life, getting covered by a pile of cinder blocks for a while. It seems to have recovered, though, and we were able to pick some.
Rhubarb in back yard
We bought a second variety, but didn't locate it in a very good spot, being crowded by other plants in our habitat garden and also being in quite a bit of shade.
We'll be moving it to a better location.
A flowering stalk emerging
In order to send more energy to the leaves, we remove flowering stalks.
