My rhubard is flowering, how can I stop it?
Will it grow any more stalks? I have cut the flowers off.


Pull out the stalks with the flower heads. They will compost quite
safely if you wish.

You'd also be advised to harvest some of the stalks for eating and/or
preserving. Don't exhaust the plant by taking everything.
