Rhubarb 'Victoria'

Medium Plug Plant x 4

Rhubarb 'Victoria' is an extremely easy to grow, high yielding rhubarb variety. It produces juicy stems from around April and reliably brings a heavy crop year after year. The stalks are a pinkish-green and have a lovely texture that's not very stringy. They are nice and sweet with the usual tang of a delicious rhubarb. Perfect for crumbles and cakes!

Note: Rhubarb leaves contain poisonous substances so should not be ingested, but they are a useful addition on the compost heap.

Please note herbaceous plants naturally die-back during the colder months. We always ensure plants have at least some growth during this time, however when buying during October through to March, the growth may be minimal and there may be blemishes from winter cold.

Plug plants are small, young plants grown in cell trays. Even the largest plug plants, described as extra-large or jumbo, are still small plants from cell trays and not established plants. Plug plants can be great value compared to buying more established plants however they may need some extra care to get them started.

We recommend starting plug plants in a small pot and not planting directly into open ground or large pots/planters. You will want a plant pot roughly the size of a tea mug, commonly referred to as 7cm or 9cm pots. Ensure the pot has plenty of holes underneath and preferably over two tiers for even better drainage.

Please note: In order to lessen our environmental impact, all of our plants will be removed from their plastic cell trays or pots before sending. Ensure you are ready to pot your plants when they arrive.
