Coffee anyone ?

Never had rhubarb.

We didn't plant it, it "came" with the house. It grows like crazy every spring. When it gets too big DH will mow over it and it will come right back in a few weeks time. I don't use it much but I also don't want to get rid of it, just like the mint that I get. Better to have them and not need them than need them but don't have any around.

My sil gave us 2 large plants last spring... we divided them and DH is super happy as we've never had luck getting small starts to grow.

Will it grow in a hot climate?

Heat will cause rhubarb to bolt that much I know but other than that I don't know much about it. Oh and the leaves are toxic. If I have a way to send them to you @Baymule without it spoiling I would.

Have to look this up on the internetz.

My Mamaw makes rhubarb pie. Never tried it. The smell was never appetizing to me and I didn’t think the pie itself looked appetizing either.

rhubarb loves Alaska weather, grows like crazy.

Sadly I am not that fond of the stuff.
