Description
Rhubarb- Ever Red (Crown)
Rhuem x hybridum
Synonyms: Rhuem rhabarbarum
NOT TO NT, TAS, WA
- Perennial to 100cm
- Deep red skinned stalks
- Highly productive
A highly productive perennial growing to 100cm with tall, deep red skinned stalks growing from the crown (or rhizome) at the base of the plant. An evergreen variety that produces year-round, with best harvests in spring and summer. One of the sweetest rhubarb varieties with a typical bittersweet tang, perfect to use in pies, desserts and jams. Suitable to grow in large containers.
The large green palmate leaves contain oxalic acid and should not be eaten by humans or animals. They can be used to make a garden insecticide.
A rhubarb crown is a rhizome (or underground runner) from a parent plant that establishes to form a new plant. The rhizome is then dug up and sold bare-rooted (without soil or leaves). Crowns come in all shapes and sizes and may have visible cuts on them where they were separated from the parent plant. Crowns will give you a head start when establishing a rhubarb plant compared to growing from seed.
