Rhubarb is an awesome plant. It grows for always, dormant in winter, but will return come spring and ready to be harvested in early or mid summer. You cannot really get rid of it unless you are prepared to have a large and deep hole in your garden, which of course you can fill up with dirt and grow lawn above it.
I love having rhubarb plant as they make endless stock of ‘fruits’ for the freezer. We would make rhubarb syrup, rhubarb jam, but mostly turn them into pie. Sweet and tart and refreshing almost like citrus flavor, that is the taste of rhubarb if you haven’t had any in your life.
