MACDONALD. 2™o Large Sturdy Plants, Bright Red Stalks

most distinct improvement which has been made in rhubarb in a good many years. We

Canada and have increased our stock by root division. 
The stalks of MacDonald are not only large but are bright crimson in color, tender and 
of excellent flavor. When cooked it makes a beautiful deep pink sauce. The plant is 
high yielding, strong and robust. 
We offer roots only of this variety as MacDonald does not seed.
