Description

Rheum hybridum 'Raspberry Red' 

An outstanding new variety producing high quality deep red thick stalks without the need for forcing. The flavour is sweeter than other rhubarb varieties.

RHS Award of Garden Merit


Despatched within 10 days.


 

Rhubarb is delicious in desserts and as it is so easy to grow and takes up very little room it deserves a place in every garden. The plants will tolerate full sun or partial shade, but it is important to make sure they are planted in a well-drained soil. It is equally suited to container growing. 

 

Large hand selected rhubarb crowns are available when they are dormant (from mid October until March) and 3 litre potted plants are usually available for planting all year.

 

For better establishment we strongly advise using Rootgrow when planting (as recommended in RHS planting guidelines).
