    Hey Guys,

    So a couple of weeks ago me and my mother transplanted our rhubarb plant and was amazed to find out (about a week later) A huge stem with a ball shape on top of it appeared. A few days later the ball opened into a cauliflower shaped and textured flower. In the whole time me and mum have been growing rhubarb from see has it ever done that.

    Have any of you come across it. If so what do i do and will it grow again?

    thanks
    Bex

    Rhubarb will easily go to seed, pull off the stalk or it may deplete the crown.
