Rhubarb - Victoria (rheum rhabarbarum)
Rhubarb Victoria is one of the easiest Rhubarbs to raise from seed
and can usually start to be harvested one year after sowing. It
produces sweet, juicy, medium sized green stalks and large green
leaves. It is a popular variety being extremely productive for years.
In culinary use, fresh raw petioles (leaf stalks) are crisp (similar
to celery) with a strong, tart taste. Most commonly, the plant's leaf
stalks are cooked with sugar and used in pies and other desserts.
Seed may be planted in autumn or spring.
