Our neighbour grew rhubarb, as children we jumped the wall, ate it with the sugar bowl on the back lawn, knowing if we were caught trouble would follow !LOLZ (was called a hiding back then).
Sweet memories being raised from childhood once again, coastal does not really support the plants we discussing, many others but not those!

LOL!
Haha!! You bad children! We did the same with the neighbor's cherry tree and yes, my mom tanned our hides! That is what we called it. Although it was not tanned, I can assure you. Nobody corrects their children nowadays, so I am sure they don't have a name for it. :/
It must be the temperature that doesn't support it, yes? I live on the water at the Shore and it grows the same as here, mostly. It is basically and island with two bridges that go out to it.
Oh, yes! The memories!!
Punishment was not dealt out for taking a few sticks, it was about not having manners and asking the neighbour first.... Too many of the youth today are loud and couth never taught by parents.
Plant does better in cooler climate, our humidity and heat does not offer ideal growing conditions. Still able to buy when in season and brought to the coast although many do not recognize it. Our main veggie planting starts next month.
Happy Saturday, you have made me think to seek out some rhubarb pie now....
