When to plant rhubarb in Darwin

We don't have planting times for rhubarb in Darwin yet.

Worked out from 30 years of climate records for Darwin. Microclimates vary: frost hollows and hills run later.

A long-lived perennial grown for its tart stalks, planted as crowns in winter or from seedlings in spring. It needs rich soil, plenty of water in summer and some afternoon shade in hot Adelaide weather. Only the stalks are edible: the leaves are toxic.
