Rhubarb Plant. Rhubarb crowns can be planted in the spring or the fall. Rhubarb is commonly grown in cool areas of the temperate zones.
Plant them in late autumn, 90cm or more apart, depending on the eventual spread of your chosen cultivar. Rhubarb will be your first fruit of the season and it's so easy to grow. By pairing rhubarb with plants that have complementary characteristics, like alliums for their scent or beans for their nitrogen fixation ability, gardeners can create a thriving ecosystem in their garden.
