Default Sources of rhubarb varietes please?

In article , Keith Parr

I am loooking for a source of rhubarb plants or rhizomes in the UK. In
France (where they are going to end up, if I can find some) all I can
find is "rhubarb" but I know it is possible to find different varieties
with different characteristics.
Ideally I would find a specialist nursery with a web site and lots of
information to help me choose maybe 4-6 different sorts to try.
Any advice - either on sources of plants, sorces of information, or
types to look for / grow will be gratefullly received!


Edwin Tucker & Sons Ltd 2004 catalogue offers seeds of Glaskins
Perpetual (early) and Victoria (maincrop) Rhubarb.
It also offers crowns of Timperley Early (early forcing) and mini-crowns
of Glaskins and Victoria - in limited supply.
