    We are always told to pull Rhubarb so the bottom of the stem doesn't go rotten and destroy the crown Taylor, mine is established but still get many seed heads.
    ♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.

      Good to know! Even since this video I’ve had two more seed pods come up. I cut those off too.

    Happy Saturday Ms. Michigan Garden Gal
    I wanted to grow Rhubarb but it's not well adapted to Florida. region ... ☺️
    It's always cool learning
    Thanks for the information about the flower

      Dan Permaculture Food Forest Thanks for watching! That is interesting. I didn’t know you couldn’t grow it there, or at least it doesn’t grow well there.
      I know what you mean though. I still watch your videos over things I can’t grow here, but I still love learning! 😂💜🌱

    That was cool to see those things. I would probably be one of those people to allow it to flower just to see the flower😏😊 GREAT share!!😊😊

      Candy's Garden right? Lol it actually stays looking like that just a larger version of it if you continue to let it grow. Looks like the head of it gets darker pink over time. Pretty cool!
      If I didn’t like rhubarb I would have definitely let it do it’s thing!

    It’s so pretty! Funny how things surprise you in the garden!! Rhubarb-something that can’t be grown here (on the surface of the sun!). Gorgeous plant.

      You learn something new everyday! Lol.
      That’s so interesting. Could you grow it in a container in a shady area possibly? Mine does great in this shady spot.

    I don’t grow rubarb, but I know they who do, just pull out the flower stem by hand as you do when you harvest the rubarb stems.
    Good luck with your rubarb plants, Taylor.
    Have a nice Sunday. Take care.

    I should try and grow Rhubarb. Absolutely love to eat it. It has been a long time since we had Rhubarb pie.🤪

      Micky Bell-Roberts sane here! I cut it up and freeze it so we always have it. 😊
      I swear rhubarb is one of the easiest plants to grow with little effort.

    It's good you looked it up Taylor, I know you can propagate rhubarb from seed, but it's easier to split the root if it get too large and multiply the plant that way.
    I wonder if that flower stem is edible?
    All the best

    • @MichiganGardenGal
      @MichiganGardenGal  4 роки тому +1

      steve's growing space since I just planted this last year I do plan on splitting it when it gets too big. I’d love to have more then one plant 😊.
      I actually thought the same thing, but what I researched said that the flower stem is not edible and it’s better to toss it and or use the seeds.
      Pretty interesting!
      Thanks for watching🧡🤗🌱

    I don't think I've ever seen one flower. And I dont think the people around me that have it deal with that. Does it stop after a year or two?

    • @MichiganGardenGal
      @MichiganGardenGal  4 роки тому +1

      Going Green Mom No. Apparently they start once the plants matures 2 to 3 years in. It’ll send up seed heads every year.
      This was from my research though.
