Hi mIEKAL,
I grew some rhubarb from Territorial seeds. It was very easy to start,
transplanted very well and all looks pretty uniform to me. None of it is
terribly red, but I think the varieties I grew were Victoria and Glaskin's
Perpetual and I don't think they are even supposed to be red. Haven't
actually harvested any as its still competing with grass pending the
completion of my summer fallowing...
