A fabulous herbaceous plant from many mountainous regions of eastern Europe and Asia.
The bright creamy coloured bracts are what this 'Noble Rheum' is grown for, and they certainly don't dissapoint. Held on stems to around 1m high or so in the UK, they stand out easily and extend further as soon as the seed is ripened.
The basal leaves are rich green and almost rounded with dep veining.
A slow grower so please be patient!
