MacDonald Rhubarb Roots 
We have an exceptionally fine lot of roots of the famous MacDonald Rhubarb. This rhubarb 
is the most distinct improvement made in rhubarb in many years and is conceded to be the best 
rhubarb ever produced. 
The plant is vigorous and strong, producing large tender stalks which are deep crimson in 
color. They make a very attractive bunch and when cooked the sauce is a beautiful deep pink 
and of excellent flavor. Market growers who have been fortunate enough to get these roots in 
the past find this rhubarb sells readily at the highest prices. 
We have not succeeded in producing this variety from seed. 
Roots only—Strong divisions. 12 for $2.50 Transporta- 
tion paid. Not paid, 100, $10.00; 1000, $85.00.
