RHUBARB 
CHERRY 
One of the newer Rhubarbs doing well in the North- 
west and becoming very popular in California. Large, 
upright type, a very fast grower, has much of the red- 
ness of Wine and Strawberry Rhubarb but a greater 
producer. Stalks are crisp and juicy, the flavor mild. 
GIANT VICTORIA 
An older type, still one of the largest producers. Does 
well on all soils and will withstand much abuse. Still 
leads in tonnage as a canning or wine Rhubarb. Light 
red outside to light green inside. 
RIVERSIDE GIANT ° 
Similar to the Victoria. Another heavy producer. A 
little redder than the Victoria Giant but otherwise 
little different. Introduced in Oregon. 
STRAWBERRY 
One of the older red varieties. A home favorite for 
many years because of its deep color. Growth is 
medium and not equal to the Cherry, but it does pos- 
sess quality for its size.

WINE RED 
A fine red rhubarb that will re- 
tain its redness for inside forcing. 
Stalks are not as large as the 
Cherry or Victoria but are very 
tender and a deeper red when 
taken from forcing cellar. The 
crown develops slowly but it does 
well in the Northwest as a forcing 
Rhubarb.
