This plant is nice to look at too which is a bonus to it being so tasty. I wanted to share the wonderful writings I've come across about it this year:

Rhubarb forever
There has been some wonderful rhubarb writings in blogland these last few weeks. I am a lover of rhubarb truth be told. It still grows behind the barn on the farm I grew up on. Rhubarb butterscotch pie is my absolute favorite kind of pie (no strawberries needed!) and I was treated to it twice when home this June. My mom made one and my grandmother made one. I also tasted my mom's rhubarb relish this year and it is really good with meat. Rhubarb is that versatile. In the interest of making my front garden edible as well as lovely to look at I have planted an heirloom variety rhubarb there with the name Victoria (three guesses as to who it is named after). This vegetable needs to be left alone the first year it is planted so no harvesting this year but I can wait for something this good.
