Rhubarb Plants

Rhubarb Plants for SaleRhubarb is full of nutrients. It contains potassium, calcium, folic acid, beta-carotene, magnesium, and vitamins A and K. It is a hardy perennial with edible stalks varying in color from the deepest red to the palest green and in length from 10 to 24-inches. The leaves should not be eaten as they contain oxalic acid.


Rhubarb plants thrive in full sun or in lightly shaded areas. Well-aged compost worked an inch to the soil should be adequate fertilization. Only a few stalks should be harvested the first year in order to allow the plant the opportunity to successfully establish itself. After that, each plant will produce about 2 pounds of stalks each year, peaking in its third or fourth year. Read our Growing Rhubarb article for helpful growing and harvesting tips.

Our ‘Crimson Red’ Rhubarb plant is also commonly called Crimson Cherry, Crimson Wine or just plain Crimson rhubarb.

Producing more-than-ample amounts of plump, non-stringy, juicy stalks, you can grow Crimson Red rhubarb all the way up into zone 2 if you provide winter protection for your rhubarb stand. As rhubarb is a perennial vegetable, choose your rhubarb planting site carefully; some rhubarb plants are productive for more than 20-years!
