They are purpose made for the job in lovely terracotta, I had no idea that they weren't a universal thing. xxCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475182740888543862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8376693003192814341.post-74515542692937880262012-03-28T15:55:26.065+01:002012-03-28T15:55:26.065+01:00Your Rhubarb forcer is very interesting.

In the US forced rhubarb is a relatively unknown thing so I am always happy to learn more.

Your rhubarb looks wonderful. I always grew it in England, although here most people don't know what it's for. I have some in the garden, it's second year, but it doesn't look nearly as good as yours. That compote sounds lovely!Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8376693003192814341.post-9288596905735271642012-03-23T21:36:17.182+00:002012-03-23T21:36:17.182+00:00I want to roll around in the back of your car.
