Everyone loves fresh Rhubarb in their garden, and it's one of the easiest things to grow on a kitchen garden. But, it has one drawback - it throws masses of lovely succulent new stems in Spring for a Month, then that's pretty much it...... feast and famine. That's because all Rhubarb plants till now go dormant in Summer. Now, we are pleased to introduce a very special British bred variety called 'Livingstone' - which is a day-neutral variety so eliminates this Summer dormancy - this means it produces stems in Spring, but then keeps on going into Summer with bigger crops again in Autumn - giving a bountiful supply for 6 Months or more. The flavour is good and sweet, and is a very easy to grow and long lasting plant - the crown will slowly expand over many years producing more and more 'stocks' for you to harvest. One for the shopping list!
This brand new Rhubarb variety has been specially selected for its especially sweet fruity flavour. Known as a 'day neutral' variety, this innovative Rhubarb crops heavily from spring to autumn unlike regular types which tend to become less productive over the summer months - so you're guaranteed a bumper crop of flavoursome stems right up until the first frosts! Apple Delight is easy to grow and adapted to thrive in all weathers - the perfect variety to plant throughout the UK being weather resistant as well as having excellent resistance to pests and disease. For best results allow to establish for a season and pick sparingly in year two. Expect heavy crops thereafter. Delivered as a growing plant established in 9cm pot.
