Rhubarb Raspberry Red 1 x Crown

Sweet Red Stems from Early in the Season Early crops of sweet, rich red stems Heavy and reliable cropper No need to force for early stems Vigorous and easy to grow RHS Recommended: Award of Garden Merit Rhubarb ‘Raspberry Red’ is an excellent choice if you want sweet, richly coloured stems early in the season. A prolific variety, it produces heavy crops of attractive red stalks from April, without needing to be forced for that first early harvest. Vigorous and dependable, established plants return year after year with generous crops from April into June. The stems have a naturally sweet flavour and good colour, making them particularly good for crumbles, pies, compotes and other favourite rhubarb recipes. It also holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit, recognising its proven garden performance. Give it a permanent spot in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil and, once established, you can look forward to years of homegrown rhubarb.
