I. LOVE. RHUBARB!!!! It's One of the first edible things to grow in the year, the leaves look like giant dinosaur fauna in the summer, and after a few years you can split them and get two plants!

Makes great pie too.
I did a nice strawberry rhubarb pie a couple summers ago that turned out nice 😋
In Dutch/Flemisch we call that "rabarber"
Love the leaves, I will have to grow some now
Perfect place for Rhubarb is early sun, and afternoon shade, regardless of what all the growing suggestions say. It grows wild where I am, and is always biggest in afternoon shaded spot. Tried growing some in full sun where I'm at, and the yields are never as good as partially shaded.
