Rhubarb

We have rhubarb in our back yard that originally came from my maternal great-grandmother’s house in Chicago. She was a prolific gardener, a tradition that passed down to my grandmother and my mother. The rhubarb was passed down as well. It has moved from Chicago, to Hanover Park to South Elgin, to Elgin, back to South Elgin and, when helloheather and I purchased our house, to Crystal Lake.

With each move only a part of the planting that preceded it was transplanted. It is growing in Elgin and South Elgin as well as here. Perhaps some from Chicago and Hoffman Estates lives on as well.
