We had rhubarb in VERY poor soils for well over 20 years and couldn't kill it............. Very near the dripline of a Water Maple.....
Was it good rhubarb? I assume it must've been OK... I once saw a mountain of coal mine tailings near Jasper, Alberta, covered with rhubarb. Really poor soil. That was the sourest rhubarb I've ever tasted.
