Rheum rhabarbarum ‘Ruby Red’

A very old variety from the famous west Yorkshire growing rhubarb area. ‘Ruby Red’ more than likely dates back from prior to 1850 when many new varieties were bred by English growers. It has been kept going in Australia by the Clayton family who have been growing rhubarb commercially in Victoria for the past 120 years or so. They describe Ruby Red as a “reliable cropper, able to be picked all year round” and the mainstay of the farm for many years. Stems are a rich red colour but remarkably the internal colour is ruby-pink.
