So glad to see rhubarb on the site :) Fanned and watching as time grows closer I'll bid on this. Wonderful rhubarb for the northeast area. Great for pies and just general eating with some sugar substitute or raw with salt ;)

Giojo - Is this the actual ready to go in the ground plant or is this auction for the seeds for us to germinate and plant after it starts growing?

That is what I thought after re-reading your post ... thank you for answering it though. I feel a little foolish for asking but ah well guess as saying goes only dumb questions are the ones not asked. :D Love the rhubarb.

Love rhubarb! I thought it had to be planted from a root transplant? I tried growing some but I guess I didn't put it in the right area.

Yes!... we just love Rhubarb strawberry pie....yes... you can plant it form root stock also...Rhubarb likes rich,humus well drained soil but it can grow in just about any type soil...Thank you and Best of Luck if you decide to bid!
