Che CNew CANADA RED Rhubarb 
A splendid new rhubarb that will replace all other varieties 
in very short short order. This Canadian novelty is outstanding, 
produces dark red stems which are dark red clear through to 
the heart. When cooked, makes a tempting looking dish of 
the sweetest and finest flavored most beautiful red sauce. The 
plant grows fast and produces an immense amount of stems. 
Stock is decidedly limited of this novelty, but six divisions 
are enough for the average family. Also remember that rhubarb 
is what might be called a lifetime plant. Therefore, buy the 
best. A few cents more spread over many years does not mean 
anything. 
Will produce stems for use first year 
Each $1.00
