A discussion has arisen over the colour of rhubarb stems. Is the
concentration of the red colour related to variety, environment or the
weather ?


Er, yes?

I believe primarily the first, but probably the others, plus the
age of the plant and the stems. The truth is rarely pure and
never simple (Oscar Wilde).
