Rheum rhabarbarum

• Never tough or stringy
• Perennial
• Greenish-red stalks
• Certified organic

The greenish-red stalks of this heirloom variety have a slight flavor of red wine, and are never tough or stringy. Victoria is delicious in pies and cobblers. The stalks are 25-30cm (10-12") long, under dark green, ruffled leaves. Sow in April, but wait 12-18 months before harvesting. After that, the stalks can be picked as needed from February to April each year. Choose a sunny site, and divide every four years. Rhubarb is perfect for the permaculture vegetable garden that focuses on perennial plants that can be harvested over many years.

Matures in 12-18 months. (Open-pollinated seeds)
