Indian rhubarb, also known as Peltate-leaved saxifrage, Shieldleaf
Indian rhubarb generally requires minimal maintenance, adapting well to moist and shady environments. The plant thrives in rich, well-draining soil and benefits from regular watering, especially when establishing. Its distinct foliage demands space to spread; thus proper placement is crucial to avoid overcrowding. Special care should focus on protection from strong winds and scorching sunlight, as indian rhubarb's large leaves are sensitive. Seasonal deadheading of spent flowers promotes healthier growth cycles.
