Botanical Name
Rheum rhabarbarum

‘Tassie Tough’ is this red stemmed variety. We have been growing this variety for years and it has deep red stems that cook up perfectly, with that characteristic bitter taste. A regular on our morning porridge or found mingling in the evenings with apple and pastry. Rhubarb is high in vitamin C. Only eat stalks as leaves have high levels of oxalic acid. Don’t cook in aluminium pots as the acid reacts with this metal. 20 seeds.
