Rhubarb under apple tree (sh.itjust.works)

I have found that this rhubarb has been a great companion for the apple tree as it shades the roots and competes well with the weeds such as the incessant and detestable buttercups

Perfect place for Rhubarb is early sun, and afternoon shade, regardless of what all the growing suggestions say. It grows wild where I am, and is always biggest in afternoon shaded spot. Tried growing some in full sun where I'm at, and the yields are never as good as partially shaded.
