Rhubarb is one of those fruits (well, technically vegetables...) that tastes good, but also looks *great* in the ground, too!
With its striking red stalks, attractive lobed leaves and (most importantly) fantastic taste, 'Fulton's Strawberry Surprise' is a variety that's garnered a lof of attention since first entering the horticultural scene. In fact, in trials carried out by RHS Wisley, it was voted as the best flavoured rhubarb
Hardy and very easy to grow, you can plant your rhubarb in the open ground, a raised bed or even in a large pot on your patio
Your rhubarb stalks will be ready to harvest from late spring to early summer, and can be used in a whole variety of ways in the kitchen; from Dad's homemade crumbles to super-sticky jams, or simply stewed with some sugar and eaten with a big dollop (or three) of cream or custard
Alongside its stellar performance in RHS Wisley's trials, this variety is also a recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit (AGM) - one of only three rhubarb varieties to have been awarded this prestigious accolade
Just a quick note - only eat the stalks as rhubarb leaves are poisonous to both humans and pets (they're absolutely fine to whack on the compost heap, though)
