Is this rhubarb?

[ScatteredMama82]

Hi, there is a lot of this growing around our garden. Is it rhubarb? Is it the edible kind?

No, it isn't, sadly.
Looks like giant hogweed or something similar.

No not rhubarb, looks like hog weed. It can cause skin irritation esp. if giant hogweed so I would get decent gloves and remove it before flowering/setting seed.

It’s hogweed. I get it.
It’s in the ‘left to go wild’ area in my garden so I don’t mind it.

I think it's one of the hogweed family, probably common not giant but best treat it with a bit of caution and get rid of it preferably when it's not sunny.
If you're allergic to celery then get someone else to remove it for you, it's probably a related reaction.

Not rhubarb, it's a weed as others say. Wear gloves when tackling it.

Brilliant thanks all! Thank goodness I didn't put it in a crumble . Can you tell I'm really not a gardener? lol.

Thank goodness I didn't put it in a crumble Indeed! Hogweed is in the same family as carrot, parsnip, dill, fennel, parsley, angelica ... but it's one family where you have to know what you're doing - it also contains Hemlock (which killed Socrates), Giant Hogweed (yours looks like common, not giant) which causes skin rashes, and various other poisonous plants.
