@drewnogal saidAmazing, Drew. No wonder you keep fit. I once recommended rhubarb chutney, it's quite nice. I suppose rhubarb shouldn't be left growing for too long.
Thank you, I’ve been working hard on developing a permaculture vegetable garden for a few years. It slopes in two directions, was overgrown with brambles and the soil poor, impacted and stoney. Yesterday I was turning my manure heap in the rain. 😢
I’m very proud of it and am now growing rhubarb, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, red-currants, kale, spinach, onions ...[text shortened]... ash, runner beans, pak choi, turnips, cabbage, broccoli, beetroot and a second attempt at sweetcorn.
Still on topic - flowers and bees, you know. 🙂
@torunn saidThis is my first year growing it, bought 2 tiny roots for £4. My resident family of sparrows like to peck holes in the leaves so I have concealed it with a bit of mesh topped with wild mint as it also likes some shade. I harvested some, stewed it and we ate it topped with yoghurt.
Amazing, Drew. No wonder you keep fit. I once recommended rhubarb chutney, it's quite nice. I suppose rhubarb shouldn't be left growing for too long.
@drewnogal saidit all began in a garden some believe
Yes, lots of wild things breeding in the garden right now 🙂
@kevin-eleven saidI have tried raspberry-rhubarb pie - they go well together.
It's been a while since I had rhubarb pie (I don't mean any kind of innuendo by that), or maybe it was strawberry-rhubarb pie. Maybe it was just more common up in Michigan.
