What's wrong with my rhubarb?
Can you help me please???...
My rhubarb has bolted! It looks like its got some kind of flower (broccoli shaped) coming out of it..!!
This happened last year too, and I thought it was because my rhubarb didn't have enough water ... however its happened again, and I am sure its had plenty of water this year!!
What is it and what can I do about it?
Thanks
Sarah

Just found this
Flowering: Some cultivars can be more prone than others. Remove flower stalks as soon as they appear to prevent them weakening the crowns. Flowering is usually worse after wet summers or where high nitrogen feed has been overused.
