'Ace of Hearts' is one of the Rheum commonly known as Dwarf Ornamental Rhubarb. Green, heart-shaped leaves with red veins on the underside are the main attraction. Pale pink flower spikes appear during summer. 'Ace of Hearts' was a cross between Rheum palmatum and Rheum kialense.
Dwarf Ornamental Rhubarb thrives in moisture-retentive soils making it well-suited to bog situations or planting alongside watercourses or ponds. Beautiful architectural foliage makes it a great plant for damp borders and beds in either partial shade or sun.
All parts of this plant are toxic.
