Did You Know?

The seed pods and flower stalks that rhubarb plants produce from time to time, in the Spring, should be removed as soon as they appear.

I think that these seed pods and flowers of the rhubarb plant are simply amazing!

They are so large and beautiful, that I really dislike removing them.

Some people have included them in a flower arrangement. :)

GO to Rhubarb Flowers

If they are allowed to continue to grow and go to seed, the plant stalks will suffer, because the plant will direct it's energy to the seed pod and flowers, and not to the stalks.

This would result in a reduced amount of rhubarb harvest.
