- 'Victoria' is an old variety, reputedly named after Queen Victoria. Producing high yields of long stems with a sweet flavour and good texture, it's considered to be one of the most reliable rhubarb varieties available. 'Victoria' may be harvested as baby stems, forced or simply left to mature.
- 'Goliath' is the giant in our rhubarb range and makes an impressive "figure" not only in the bed, but also in the kitchen. It is high yielding and although the green-meaty varieties are said to be quite often sour, 'Goliath' is one of the very, very mild and extremely tasty varieties. A consumer tasting in Germany 'Goliath' (together with 'Holsteiner Blut') was a crowd pleaser in terms of taste.
- 'Red Champagne' is a vigorous perennial with large, glossy, wrinkled, dark green leaves and long, deep pink to reddish-pink, edible stems ready for harvest from early spring to early summer.
- 'Holsteiner Blut' Due to its good cultural and taste properties 'Holsteiner Blut' is still recommended for cultivation today and is considered the most famous red-stemmed rhubarb species. Easy to grow and does not require forcing. The rhubarb variety 'Holsteiner Blut' has blood-red colored stems. The stems show a pronounced ribbing on the back and have deep grooves on the inside.
