Pot size: 3 litreProduct description
What could be more rewarding than harvesting your own, homegrown rhubarb to make into pies and crumbles? Considered one of the earliest fruits of the year, you can force rhubarb in winter for a crop as early as March.
Ensure you plant rhubarb in rich, moist soil and give it plenty of room to grow. Only the stalks are edible - compost the leaves as these are highly poisonous if consumed.
Please note that all our plants come in simple plastic pots unless otherwise stated in the product name. If you wish to pot yours up we do have a wide range of pots to choose from.
Planting & care instructions
This product will come with any relevant warnings please read carefully before use.Preparation & usage
Plant rhubarb in fertile, free-draining soil with added organic matter, such as well-rotted horse manure. Allow plenty of space around the plant so it can spread out.
Water during dry periods and mulch annually, in autumn. It’s a good idea to remove any flower stems when they appear, to direct energy back into stem production. To harvest rhubarb, take the entire stem, gently twisting and then pulling it upwards from the base.
