Q.Why Do Lilacs Lack Fragrance? Also, Is All Rhubarb Good To Eat? … When.
In Ohio lilacs were so fragrant one could smell them before you could see them. In Colorado, not so much. Why? Also, I want to know if all rhubarb is the same or is some more edible than others, or how can you tell? Does it have to turn red before you can eat it?
