For those that are concerned about your weather areas and rhubarb: I grew up eating wild rhubarb in North Dakota, so I think the information would be for using the knowledge learned here and apply to your area. Hotter Zones -maybe plant rhubarb in a 'partial shade' area; colder zones: fuller sun areas? I have both areas..patches scattered on the property: now living in the East: Zone 4. We rarely get to 100 degrees, lots of rain, mountainous area, humid. We also rarely get below 0 degrees. My most productive patch is at the end of my full sun garden but it gets shade from the huge lilac trees in the evenings. Overall-I feel 'best sun' is 'morning sun'. Hope this helps.
