I just got a rhubarb plant from a friend dug up out of their garden. Where is the best place to replant that? Its pretty good size bunch so I am hoping it will take off once it goes back down in the ground.

Did you know that when rain is on the way the rhubarb leaves will rise up and funnel slightly so the rain will reach the roots of the plant?

I love rhubarb. Always grew some in our yard when I was growing up. Haven't grown it myself, moved too often.

Do you have an old stump you can plant around?

I have an old pine tree but its too shaded.

@mistymoon77 Nope, not very much. It grows best in full sun with well drained soil. Tree stumps are normally in full sun, that's I asked.

@CrazyQuilter Tree stumps are normally in full sun and often times available for planting around.

@Hebert54 Rhubarb pie and jam are fantastic!
