I’ve never seen this before, but our main rhubarb plant has created what appears to be a flower. It’s kind of broccoli-like, but with (as you can see) red bits and pale green bits.
In short, very strange, and very alien-looking.
I don’t want to induce panic, but I’m fairly sure that’s a triffid rather than rhubarb.
