Rheum 'Victoria', was introduced in the 1800s during the time Queen Victoria ascended to the throne, and has earned a special place in gardens and kitchens alike. This unique variety of rhubarb is celebrated primarily for its edible crimson stalks which are typically used in tangy pies, mouth-watering crumbles and jams. The plant boasts large green leaves that, while not edible, serve to enhance the look of your garden. Rheum 'Victoria' produces an abundance of stalks making it ideal for those who enjoy baking and cooking with fresh ingredients. To thrive, this plant prefers to bask in full sunlight and flourishes in well-drained soil.
