Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is classified as late-maturing and is intended for open field cultivation. The plant has a robust growth habit with an upright stalk orientation. Stalks are relatively thick, have a dense texture, and a deep red color that persists to the tips even during extended growth.

The rhubarb tolerates cold climates well and is recommended for hardiness zones 4–8, though it is sensitive to prolonged intense heat. Yield and growth vigor of the variety are rated as moderate.

The variety is used in culinary applications for preparing desserts, pies, and jams due to its pleasant sweet taste. Because of its ornamental foliage and bright stalk color, it is sometimes used in landscape design as an element of edible decor.
