Rhubarb 'Victoria' FAQ
Does rhubarb grow everywhere?
It thrives in cold regions (zones 3–6). It needs winter cold and dislikes heat, so in warm regions (zones 8–10) it is often short-lived or grown as a cool-season annual with afternoon shade.
How long until I can harvest?
Wait until the second year for a light picking; harvest fully from year three.
Is it safe for children and pets?
Only the stalks are eaten. Rhubarb leaves are toxic to people and pets; do not eat them.
Will plants from seed match 'Victoria'?
Seedlings vary somewhat in stalk color; most are green with red blush.
