Strawberry Rhubarb

10 years ago

I'd really love to find Strawberry Rhubarb. The variety not strawberry + rhubarb in one plant :/ My grandma has this variety growing in Canada and her rhubarb stew was the best. I can't seem to find it anywhere in the US and I'm not sure it will make it over the border if I make my mom try dig some of it up. Anyone ever heard of it?

My consolation would be rhubarb that is red inside and out. On the sweeter side of rhubarb if possible. Any suggestions?

It's available in the UK. Maybe that's how it got to Canada originally? It's mentioned by these people who appear to grow it in Wisconsin. http://www.harmonyvalleyfarm.com/recipes/rhubarb.pdf
