I got down and dirty with my rhubarb this afternoon!

It is quite a jungle out there! That hard Winter has done wonders for this rhubarb, that and the 6 inches of composted horse manure I put on it this Spring.

It got me thinking that it reminded me of something a few years ago...

I visited the sub-tropical
Trebah Garden in Cornwall and walked through their Gunnera Passage!

Of course..rhubarb and gunnera are related! Just one is a bit bigger and spikier than the other!
