Perennial plants mainly have a spring and summer development. During the coldest months of the year the aerial part can completely dry out, to come up the year after. Let's grow the The Chinese rhubarb outdoors; they can bear very harsh minimum temperatures, even when many degrees below zero.Let's grow the The Chinese rhubarb in a luminous place, with direct sunlight.

Irrigation Chinese rhubarbTenere asciutto
These plants display a pretty long period of vegetational rest. During this time it isn't necessary to water the plants. We suggest watering the The Chinese rhubarb every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water.

Feed Chinese rhubarb
In the spring let’s fertilize perennials periodically, using a specific fertilizer for flowering plants, to add to the irrigating water, every 20-25 days; or we can spread a slow release fertilizer near the plants every 3-4 months.

Adversity Chinese rhubarb
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.
