Is it about time to start planting rhubarb for the next season?

Yes, if you are in a colder growing zone. It MUST stay dormant from now until next Spring. It needs a full-sun spot, too, and good drainage. If the spot is too wet, it’ll just rot before it can get established.

Top it off with a nice shovel-full of compost and she’ll do the rest. :)
