Yes, you should cut down the large stem with a flower in the middle of your rhubarb plant. Flowering can divert energy from the leaves and stalks, which are the edible parts of the plant. Removing the flower stem helps encourage healthier growth and maximizes your harvest. Be sure to use clean, sharp tools to avoid damaging the plant.

The plant you are describing sounds like Rheum palmatum, commonly known as the Chinese rhubarb or ornamental rhubarb. It features large, broad leaves at the base and tall, sturdy flower stems that can produce clusters of small pink flowers.
