Very old, easy to grow, reliable variety which produces an abundance of very thick sticks which are red at the base changing to green flecked nearer the leaves. The sticks are deliciously sweet and very juicy but with a good tart punch. A main crop veriety which is very hardy. Self-fertile.
Rhubarb flourishes in an open sunny position, with deep fertile soil. Mulch every winter with a good, thick layer of well rotted compost, and apply a general fertiliser in the spring. Do not allow to flower unless seed is wanted as this affects next year's crop. Plant 90cm - 1.2m (3 - 4ft) apart.
