    i would have thought you can grow Rhubarb in any thing the problem with Rhubarb is feeding the plant you would need at least a 40 litre container with lots of compoct in the bottom topped up with soil but Rhubarg is a gross feeder meaning you would be for evermore feeding the thing plus can you wait long enough because they recomend no picking 1st year so there is the plus and minus good luck jacob

      Not permanently, although you could lift a few roots and pot them up for early cropping (forcing) in a greenhouse/shed. After forcing they should be discarded or planted back into open ground and left for at least two years before taking any further crops from them.
