Rheum - Rhubarb

Rheum (Rhubarb) are robust rhizomatous perennials adorned with impressive, heart-shaped leaves and tall flowering stalks boasting large feathery plumes of tiny flowers. Rhubarbs can be strictly ornamental (Rhubarb palmatum) or they can be vegetables grown for their beautiful, edible leaf stalks which are used most often in pies, jams, and compotes. Careful: all rhubarb leaves are highly toxic, so keep them out of your kitchen.

Rheum palmatum (Chinese Rhubarb)

A very architectural plant, Rheum palmatum (Chinese Rhubarb) is a clump-forming rhizomatous perennial grown primarily for its huge, palmately-lobed, dark green leaves, up to 30 in. long (75cm), and its feathery plumes of pink or creamy-white flowers. Blooming from late spring to midsummer, they rise on an imposing flower stalk as if to reach the sky.
