  • Species and varieties: Victoria Rhubarb (Rheum rhabarbarum) is a popular variety of rhubarb known for its large, thick stalks and tart flavor. It is a perennial plant that belongs to the Polygonaceae family. The Victoria variety is particularly favored for its reliable growth and productivity.
  • Hybrid or heirloom: Victoria Rhubarb is considered an heirloom variety. Heirloom seeds are open-pollinated and have been passed down through generations, maintaining their original traits and characteristics.
  • Pruning and training: Rhubarb plants require minimal pruning. Remove any flower stalks as they appear to encourage the plant to focus its energy on producing edible stalks. In the fall, after the first frost, cut back the foliage to the ground to prepare the plant for winter dormancy.
  • Fertilization needs: Rhubarb benefits from a balanced fertilizer applied in early spring as new growth begins. A compost or well-rotted manure can be added to the soil to improve fertility. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of stalk production.
  • Hardiness zones: Victoria Rhubarb is suitable for USDA hardiness zones 3 to 8. It can tolerate cold winters and prefers cooler climates.
  • Climate requirements: Rhubarb thrives in regions with cool summers and cold winters. It requires a period of dormancy with temperatures below 40°F (4°C) to produce strong, healthy stalks. It prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained, fertile soil.
