Can someone please tell me what pests affect rhubarb ?

Thanks Dee Dee


Honey Fungus, though not a pest, is a potential killer. That's how I

lost
mine many years ago.

Are you sure it was honey fungus? It affects a variety of trees and
shrubs, but I wouldn't have thought rhubarb was woody enough.

Hi Kay,

I'm reasonably sure ...? Now you're making me wonder. Strawberries are
supposed to be troubled by it, though, and they're not woody. Perhaps
another urgler knows for sure?
