'Strawberry Red' Rhubarb Plants

Strawberry Red rhubarb is the top culinary rhubarb variety, known for its very red stalks and sweet-tart flavour, reminiscent of strawberries. It has tender, juicy stems that are less fibrous than other varieties, making it ideal for cooking and baking. Strawberry Red rhubarb is perfect for pies, jams, sauces, and desserts, where its rich colour (even when cooked) and tangy-sweet taste shine. This variety is also a hardy perennial, thriving in cooler climates and producing reliably year after year.
