PRE-PACK RHUBARB TIMPERLEY EARLY 1

\’Temperley Early\’ is a high yelding variety with thick stems, preferred choice for forcing. Height ad Spread:0.5 x 1m. Position: Full sun to partial shade. Soil: Moist but well-drained. Growing rhubarb: Plant your dormant crowns in late winter and early spring in a sunny site, after digging a good amount of well-rotted manure. The tip of the crown should be visible. If planting more than one crown, plant at least 90cm apart. Indeed rhubarb needs a fair bit of space. Harvesting: do not harvest the first year, and pick only a few stems the following year to allow the plant to become more vigourous. In general, never harvest more than a third of the plant at the time.
