    :yikes::yikes: Thats about 400 tonne bags stacked on top of one another for a good shot at it :heehee:
    I had flicked over that thread previously thats how i knew about edinburgh botanical gardens and how people had failed getting them to flower:sad:
    Ive got 2 places i will try to grow it ,near the pond with the gunnera shading or on the front garden that rises in an area for drainage with fence protection... but the window cleaner could tread on it :gaah:
    And thats if i can actually get them to germinate :thud:x

            Loooked at the amount one would need to ingest before it became dangerous and I don't think OH would eat 5 pounds of rhubarb leaves.....:snorky:

            Okay, just teasing, he still shovels the drive when it snows.....and it is January:heehee:

            The stalks now, those are very dangerous. Wouldn't want someone splashing me ..:sofa:
