Rhubarb is a favortie in the British Isles which is probably why Dad loved to grow it. My plants are plants that my Dad gave me and I divide and keep the patch going. His plants came from my childhood home in New Hampshire so these plants have been in my family for at least 100 years.My grand dad had them in his garden. I love the legacy of them and I love the taste!
