I have just received some plants, with a leaftlet about care, which
included pruning - including for strawberries and rhubarb. You
will be glad to know that rhubarb does not require pruning.

There probably ARE people who need to know that :-)

I just checked mine and found the Rhubarb Police must have been round
(without showing me a warrant) and pruned it to the ground.. every leaf
confiscated. Surely, they should have offered me the branches, same as
if they pruned my damsons?
Have all our human rights left, was it all just pie in the sky?

You surprise me.
I thought that you had to prune out all flowering shoots.

Just a thought.
If you pick and dry your plumbs is this also Pruning?

Not bad

But no, I think that your version above is lead-ing. Straight up.
