My Rhubard Patch

Just along from the corner pergola post is my rhubarb patch. The compost heap is just over the fence and I have to lean over the rhubarb with my food scraps.

The rhubarb leaves are very sculptural and artistic, and I enjoy their autumn combination with some pale blue asters. I also like their creamy flower seed-heads which appear in late summer.

I like to use rhubarb in jams - when I am organised enough!
