Discover the delicious and versatile Rhubarb, a herbaceous perennial from the Polygonaceae family that produces fleshy, edible stalks. With its many species and hybrids, this plant has been used for centuries in cooking and can be harvested this year from its short, thick rhizomes. Though its large leaves contain high levels of oxalic acid and anthrone glycosides, don't let that stop you from enjoying its unique flavor and potential health benefits.
