Rhubarb Poulton's Red Plant

Poulton’s Red is a brand new variety, the latest in day neutral breeding and is our sweetest Rhubarb yet. Remarkable in trials for its vigour and deep green leaves, however the most eye-catching feature was the bright red, stringless stems – the strongest red we’ve ever seen.

With rhubarb, generally the redder the stem the sweeter the taste. The flavour of Poulton’s Red is similar to Poulton’s Pride but with less of the characteristic rhubarb sharpness, which means little or no sugar needs to be added in the cooking process.

Like Poulton’s Pride, the dormancy has been naturally bred out so you can enjoy harvesting Poulton’s Red from February (if forced) and continue through to November – up to 10 months of the year.
