VAT is not chargeable on these plants.
Reliable crops of large, juicy, bright red stems of very fine quality are produced from late spring to late summer. These can be harvested later than other varieties due to the low oxalic acid content. Will tolerate partial shade. 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.
