Thompson & Morgan Rhubarb 'Thompson's Terrifically Tasty' has been bred in Essex by a Mr. Thompson, and is the earliest rhubarb we’ve ever found. From March onwards, thick, pink, flavoursome stalks tapering to green are produced, a whole month earlier than other rhubarb plants! You’ll be enjoying this aptly-named rhubarb variety over a long period, from March right through to mid-summer. Thompson & Morgan Rhubarb ‘Thompson’s Terrifically Tasty’ is delicious in pies, crumbles and jams. Plant rhubarb in well-drained soil from autumn to spring in a sunny position. When planting budded pieces from mature rhubarb crowns, set them so that the top of the crown sits 3cm (1") below soil level and allow a spacing of 75cm (30") between plants. Prepare the soil in advance by digging in plenty of well-rotted manure and clearing all weeds. Alternatively plant them in large containers of soil based compost such as John Innes No 3. mixed with plenty of rotted manure. In order to allow the plant to become properly established during the first year, resist the temptation to harvest the stems. In spring, remove the emerging flower heads as they appear. From the second year, stems can be harvested from April to June, when the leaves have fully unfurled. Pull from the base of each stem and twist them away from the crown. Harvest only a few stems at a time. Water rhubarb plants in summer during dry periods to prevent the soil from drying out. When the leaves die back in autumn, remove the old stalks and apply a mulch of well-rotted manure around the crown. Caution: The leaves of rhubarb plants are toxic if eaten.
